Japanese Dragonfly Lantern Earrings

$36.00

An ancient name for Japan was Akitsu-shimu or dragonfly isle. Dragonflies symbolize good luck and were believed to be the spirit of the rice plant. Here they adorn a paper lantern, an integral part of Japanese culture. The 500-year-old Feast of Lanterns, or Obon, ends with floating illuminated lanterns down rivers.
