Description

Art jewelry inspired by The Met collection.

The flowers and pomegranates defining these fanciful earrings are plucked from The Unicorn Rests in a Garden (1495–1505), a French and South Netherlandish textile at The Met Cloisters. The Museum's beloved medieval masterwork may have been created as a single image, though it's considered one of the seven so-called Unicorn Tapestries, which are among the most impressive extant artworks from the late Middle Ages. Resting amid a millefleurs backdrop of richly symbolic plants, the unicorn likely signifies tamed love, as the pomegranate tree to which it's loosely tethered represents marriage and fertility.
