The Sugar Maple has long been admired, not only for its brilliant autumn colors and sweet sap, but also for the enduring connection it carries throughout folklore and tradition. Indigenous people first discovered the trees sweet sap centuries ago, which later inspired maple sugaring traditions that became deeply woven into North American culture. With some lifespans reaching up to 500 years, sugar maples have come to represent lasting commitment and resilience. Each spring, as sap begins to flow after the stillness of winter, the sugar maple serves as a symbolic reminder of loves ability to return with the changing seasons.Materials: The Sugar Maple earrings are cast in bronze with a brown and green hand patina finish.
