Vintage gold earrings from Kuan Yin in red coral

Description

---

Gold earrings set with carved red corals. The red corals are cut to resemble the face of Kuan Yin. A beautiful vintage pair of earrings crafted from 14-karat yellow gold (585/1000). (Also lovely to wear with the same Kuan Yin ring.) Kuan Yin is an influential figure in both Buddhism and Taoism, particularly in East Asian cultures. She is revered as a bodhisattva, symbolizing compassion and mercy. She is often depicted as a peaceful and comforting feminine presence, helping people in times of pain or need. Her name literally means "she who hears the voices of the world," and many invoke her for support and protection.
