French Sphinx Morgaine Dangles with Banded Agate
Share
These striking Morgaine Dangles feature imagery of sphinxes from an 18th-century French wall panel dated to 1785. Reflecting the Neo-Classical style, which looked to ancient Greek and Roman sources for inspiration, the design was heavily influenced by the rediscovery of Pompeii and the fascination with classical antiquity. The sphinx, a symbol of mystery, wisdom, and guardianship, evokes a sense of timeless intrigue and grace.
Each earring is paired with a claw-shaped banded agate drop, echoing the sphinx’s strength and protective nature. Known for its grounding and stabilizing properties, banded agate brings balance and harmony, making it a meaningful complement to the historical imagery.
Perfect for those who admire classical elegance and symbolic designs, these earrings blend the allure of 18th-century artistry with the mystique of ancient iconography, creating a bold yet refined statement piece.

Cherish your Folkloric Jewelry with a touch of tender care to maintain its magic and charm. Our pieces are handcrafted using decoupage techniques and sealed to protect the artistry, though they should not be worn in water, such as showers or swimming pools, to preserve their beauty. Sterling silver elements may develop a patina over time and can be revived with a simple polish. Our bronze chain necklaces are treated with a non-tarnishing solution, but to avoid possible reactions with sweat, it's best not to wear them during intense activities. Remember, any small imperfections are part of the unique handcrafted nature of each piece.
