Bio

Absolutely exquisite in their statement-making, bold, and modern design, these Bibi van der Velden earrings are as eye-catching as they are sophisticated. A diamond encrusted cluster of symbolic animals - including a lion, elephant, serpent, rhino, and two monkeys - create a mini huggie hoop. Attached, but removable, and hanging below are large scarabs of sterling silver, gold, and diamonds with real wings (considered a delicacy in Thailand, Bibi reclaims the discarded wings for her jewelry). Their hypnotic design add to their stunning, luxurious presence.
