A pair of 9ct yellow gold Mashrabiya Trellis hoop earrings with pearls. From the journey to Morocco.
The hoop height measures approximately 23mm and its width is 5mm.
Mashrabiya Trellis
The Islamic love of geometry is echoed in the Mashrabiya screens created on their travels wherever they went. Geometry builds on simple shapes of circles, squares and rectangles turning them into puzzling patterns. And through the spaces in between, it is possible to create endlessly varying vistas for the eye to wonder at.
As I walked from palace to palace around Morocco, the trellis pattern was repeated in each one: different and yet the same. I made gold sections of the squares and created earrings and rings set with diamonds, turquoises and lapis lazuli.
