These earrings are in the shape of the Celtic Trinity Knot, also called the Triquetra. It is said to have had several meanings over the centuries. Most commonly it is said to represent the Holy Trinity, with or without the interwoven ring. The ring is said to represent never ending love, among other things. Most people just think it's a cool design.
I printed it here with two different plastics, one opaque and one translucent. The opaque one shows off the interwoven appearance of the design better. But the translucent one is a UV reactive PLA that shines bright in sunlight or a blacklight.
The model was optimized for printing with a 0.6mm nozzle, but a 0.3 or 0.4 would work just as good. You might be interested in some of my other designs.

This Trinity Know earring was printed in PLA at 200C and the printbed heated to 65C.

Jewelry Making Kit:
You can also buy in bulk

I use
this 20 gauge sterling silver jewelry wire to make your own.

nylon jawed pliers so you don't scratch or flatten your jewelry wire.
