Caracol Studs

Classic and timeless snail studs for everyday wear. 

Land and sea snails, while in metamorphosis, were very common in the early period of gold work. Time was conceived as being cyclical or like a spiral. The metamorphosis that occurred in certain animals, such as insects, represented the never-ending cycle of life-the death, and rebirth that all beings were subjected to. Snails are an ongoing inspiration for Daniella's work.
