Heaven | Circle Drop Earring | 9 Carat Solid Gold
Handmade Irish Designer Circle earrings in 9 Carat Gold by Martina Hamilton.
Inspired by a timeless love poem by W.B. Yeats, “He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven”, the Heaven Collection is a long standing favourite suite of designer jewellery from the Martina Hamilton studio.
Solid gold circles in hallmarked 9 carat gold are embossed with tiny icons of sun moon and stars, a wish for the heavens embroidered cloths which the poet wanted to capture from the heavens for his beloved.
The astral symbols themselves are inspired by 6000 year old Neolithic Irish stone carvings found at sites such as Newgrange, Knowth and Loughcrew.
Understated subtle styling, and contemporary romance is at the heart of this piece and it’s collection. Designed and made in the West of Ireland, with love and meaning that crosses all boundaries.

HE WISHES FOR THE CLOTHS OF HEAVEN
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. - W B Yeats
