Dragonfly jewelry
Dragonflies are the 2019 Krombholz Designs "Icon of the Year".
You might ask why dragonflies?
The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world symbolizes change; the kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life.
The association of Dragonflies with water gives rise to this meaning to this fascinating insect. The Dragonfly’s flight across water represents an act of going beyond what’s on the surface and looking into the deeper aspects of life.
The dragonfly’s agile flight and its ability to move in all six directions exude a sense of power and poise - something that comes only with age and maturity.
The dragonfly can move at an amazing 45 miles an hour, hover like a helicopter fly backwards like a hummingbird, fly straight up, down and on either side. What is mind blowing is the fact that it can do this while flapping its wings a mere 30 times a minute while mosquitoes and houseflies need to flap their wings 600 and 1000 times a minute respectively.
