A pair of earrings inspired by the archetypal masks of ancient Greek drama.
In the world of Greek theater, masks were essential tools used to define a character’s identity, representing archetypes such as the youth, the elder, the slave, or the satyr. Beyond their visual function, these masks acted as acoustic amplifiers; the wide mouth openings were designed to project the actor's voice throughout the stone amphitheaters. This system was later adopted by the Romans. Interestingly, the Latin word persona is thought to originate from the Etruscan phersu, meaning "mask," suggesting that the concept of personality is historically tied to the roles we play.
The masks measure approximately 20 mm in height. Each earring weighs about 4 g.
