Our charmingly detailed sterling silver 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.
Measuring approximately 1/4" north to south and 1/4" wide with standard gauge posts. Comes with sturdy sterling silver tension backs to hold them firmly in place. No buzzing off at inopportune moments.
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.
The perfect gift for the discreet best friend on your list.
