Gold & Diamond Mini Fly Studs

$425.00

Our charming little 10k yellow gold fly studs are small but make a definite statement, realistically modeled from the tiny feet to the gently canted wings. Contrary to my impression of most flies I also think there's something sweet about these little bugs, a sort of wholesome friendliness. They're not trying to get in your way, they're just trying to get by.

Flies had symbolic significance in the 19th century and were used sometimes as representations of human mortality, and by extension, spiritual humility. They can also represent the idea of secrets, or secret-keeping; just like the fly on the wall sees everything but tells no one.

As a talisman creature, the fly is particular to those who are independent, resourceful and adaptable in the face of adversity. Perhaps the perfect gift for the discreet confidante, or the down-to-earth friend who always seems to have a quick solution when hems are ripped and keys are lost.

DETAILS: Measuring approximately 1/4" north to south and 1/4" wide with standard gauge posts, they will come with sturdy 10k tension backs to hold them firmly in place. No buzzing off at inopportune moments.
