Palici earrings in 18ct white gold set with 8-9mm freshwater white pearl studs and 12-13mm freshwater white pearl twin back. These earrings are designed to be worn with the larger freshwater pearl behind the ear to be seen from the front. Inspired on the Palici (who descended from the original Sicilians of around 750BC), and were Sicilian daemons, twin sons of Zeus and the nymph Thaleia, the daughter of Hephaestus. They were worshipped near Mount Aetna. From The Journey to Sicily.
These earrings are part of Cassandra's interchangeable collection. If you already own jewels from this collection and only wish to buy part of the earring shown, please contact the showroom on 0207 730 2202.

All Cassandra Goad Jewellery is designed and made in our workshops in London.
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
