Apple Seed & Garnet Drop Earring

14K Yellow / White Gold
Natural Garnet
single earring

These earrings feature an apple seed, cast from one found in a biodynamic English orchard. The smaller stud retains the original seed form, while the drop features a faceted garnet, echoing its shape. A touch of gold appears to drip over the garnet, as if the seed has transformed into a precious stone.

Apples have a rich history as protective amulets, cherished for their symbolism of health, fertility, and prosperity. Traditionally, apples were believed to shield against harm and bring blessings when carried, placed in a home, or buried in the earth during rituals. Their seeds, small but potent, were often tucked into charms or pouches to ward off negativity and attract abundance. By incorporating apples into protective practices, people embraced their connection to resilience and renewal, making them timeless symbols of balance and safeguarding.
