The “Aphrodite’s Ear” is a unique piece of jewellery inspired by a myth about beauty and denial. Nerite, a beautiful young man, refused to follow the goddess Aphrodite to Mount Olympus, even though she had endowed him with wings. Out of grief and anger, the goddess transformed him into a shell that remained forever stuck to the rocks of the sea. The shell captures the flawless beauty and charm of Neriti, earthly and eternal.
