Wholesale Raphael Cherub Hook Earrings

These earrings feature the beloved cherubs from Raphael’s Sistine Madonna (1512), perhaps some of the most recognizable angels in art history. Resting at the bottom of the painting, these two small figures gaze upward in quiet wonder, their expressions somewhere between reverence and daydreaming. Though often reproduced on their own, they were originally painted as part of a grand devotional work, grounding the divine scene above with something deeply human, curiosity, patience, and the soft boredom of waiting. • 12.7mm Dulcet size • 24k gold plated brass hooks • Paper, resin, glass dome This is a one-of-a-kind item.

Over time, the two angels became icons in their own right, appearing everywhere from postcards to porcelain, beloved for their expressive faces and timeless charm.
