Embrace ancestral wisdom, balance, and sacred moral values with the Seven Grandfather Teachings Earrings by Cody Houle. Designed in collaboration with Oscardo for the Gallery Collection, these shield-shaped drop earrings showcase Cody Houle's meaningful Seven Grandfather Teachings (Les sept enseignements de grand-père) design. Inspired by Anishinaabe traditions, the artwork honours the seven sacred teachings—Wisdom, Love, Respect, Bravery, Honesty, Humility, and Truth—depicting animal teachers and an eagle soaring amidst flourishing Woodland botanical motifs.
Crafted from hypoallergenic, nickel-free materials, each lightweight earring features a vibrant printed art insert beneath a smooth protective dome, suspended from comfortable French wire hooks. Mounted on an authentic story card detailing its cultural origin, this pair makes an inspiring gift, a daily emblem of reflection and integrity, or a cherished keepsake that directly supports the artist through royalties.
