The Everlasting Why Earrings

Image of The Everlasting Why Earrings

$ 6.00

These earrings, along with their partner earrings "Transitory Yes Earrings" were both inspired by one of my favorite passages from E.M. Forster's novel A Room With a View. 

"We know that we come from the winds, and that we shall return to them; that all life is perhaps a knot, a tangle, a blemish in the eternal smoothness. But why should this make us unhappy? Let us rather love one another, and work and rejoice. I don't believe in this world sorrow.  .  .  make my boy think like us. Make him realize that by the side of the everlasting Why there is a Yes--a transitory Yes if you like, but a Yes."

Round silver-colored pewter charms featuring a question mark hang beneath an iridescent opaque black machine-cut fire-polished glass bead on silver-colored pewter post earrings.  Length from post to bottom of earring is 1.5"

To have earrings converted to a standard fish hook, 100% sterling silver fish hook or to a sterling silver ball post, select the correct conversion style from the CONVERSIONS department of my store and add it to your basket.  If you are buying multiple pairs of earrings make sure to indicate to which earrings the conversions apply.
