The warm tone of amber in these earrings recalls sunlight caught in resin. Two cabochon-cut amber stones are set in simple studs with a classic, restrained line - a form that never draws attention away from the colour of the stone. Amber is fossilised resin, a material that feels alive to the touch and honey-toned in colour, and jewellers of past eras associated it with the warmth of the sun and good fortune in business. Close to the face, the cabochon catches light differently with every turn of the head, which is especially noticeable with fair hair.

Only a small portion of the amber reviewed makes it into these earrings - the rest is rejected already at the raw material selection stage. Good stones of this kind are becoming harder to find, and the price of silver and precious metals keeps rising, so buying at this price today makes sense. The studs are made of rhodium-plated silver: the rhodium layer is hard and withstands everyday scratches well, so the metal's shine does not dull over time. The silver itself is refined European silver of 925 fineness, an alloy free of nickel, the metal most often responsible for skin reactions. This means the earrings can be worn without worry about skin reactions. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which guarantees the origin of the metal.

The classic stud form works well in office looks - paired with a smooth shirt and a jacket in a muted shade, the amber warms up the whole outfit without overdoing it. With fair and dark hair, the cabochon reflects light differently, so it's worth checking before pairing it with a particular hairstyle. The earrings are small in size and weigh 1.5 g, so they wear lightly throughout a full working day. This is jewellery for a considered, everyday choice, not for occasional sparkle.
