Inspired by the ancient Egyptian asps that were thought to grant protection to its wearer long into the afterlife, these hoop earrings form long, curling snakes whose tails taper into thin wisps. Originally hand-carved in wax, its curves feel hand-wrought and the semi-matte finish makes these hoops feel like they were plucked from Cleopatra’s own jewelry box.
