Enamel 14ct Gold Ladybird Earrings

747E
793 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A great little pair of earrings that will get noticed when you wear them. A ladybug historically symbolizes good fortune. In the middle ages, aphids attacked crops and the farmers prayed to the Virgin Mary for help. A short time later, ladybugs arrived and killed all the bugs. The Swiss used to tell their children that ladybugs, not storks, bring babies. Some people, even today, believe that if a ladybug lands on you, you’re in for some good luck!
