Chinese Jade Dragon Scale & Silver Drop Earrings These Born to be Wild Collection earrings were inspired by the Year of the Dragon. In the Chinese Zodiac the sign of the Dragon encompasses those born during the years 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, and 2024. Common traits amongst those who fall under this sign are charisma, confidence, ambition, and loyalty. Dragons have long been associated with prosperity and power. Chinese Jade represents the heart chakra, harmony, good fortune. It is a common quirky in dragon mythology for these magical creatures to collect or hoard shiny objects, so a shimmering silver metal drop focal seemed only appropriate when bringing this design to life. These long earrings are made with nickel free silver ear wire. They were made with love, designed to compliment your favorite hippie-boho fashions, & make a great gift! Please note: Due to the variance possible in using natural stone, the item you receive may differ slightly from the one in the photos. To protect your earrings, please do not submerge in water. Wear them and be well. XOXO
