Ioannina Earrings

The flower with the impressive stamens that featured on the gold-embroidered belt of the Ioannina city’s oldest costume, one of the richest in the Turkish-occupied Greece, is now revived as a coral-embellished earring. Split in half, the flower’s twin parts hug the ears with their petals. The Ioannína earrings inherit the name of their birthplace. Allegedly, the city itself was named after Ioannína, the daughter of Belisarius, general of the Byzantine emperor Justinian.
