Beautiful sterling silver earrings with filigree in a yurt shape and dangling ornaments with labradorite by Nurlan Kazbalinov. The Shanyrak, the central opening at the top of a yurt, is one of the most important symbols in Kazakh culture. It represents home, family, unity, and the connection between generations. In jewelry, the Shanyrak serves as a reminder of one’s roots, heritage, and family traditions. Traditional Kazakh earrings often feature small dangling elements that create a delicate ringing sound when worn. According to ancient beliefs, this gentle chime helped ward off evil spirits and negative influences, giving the jewelry both a decorative and protective purpose.
Measures approximately 2-1/2 inches from top of ear wire to bottom by 1/2 inch in diameter.
