The fly in jewelry often symbolizes bravery. Flies might be pesky but you have to admire their tenacity and fearlessness in landing on creatures a thousand times their size! You shall persevere with these little flies cheering you on. 

Vintage gold plated metal and glass enamel on clip backs. Made by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1989. Measures just under 1 inch. Good condition, with wear to the backs and a small scratched area of enamel on one earring (zoom on top earring in first photo).

There exist more than 110,000 species in the Order Diptera (flies)! Annoying as they can be with incessant buzzing, flies earn their keep in the global ecosystem as pollinators.
