Deep and velvety matte, the two black onyx stones in these earrings do not reflect light but absorb it - it is this dense, uniform black without the faintest glimmer that decided the choice of these particular stones. The cabochon cut highlights their smooth, slightly domed surface, while the dangling, retro silhouette brings a touch of old-world elegance to any look. The medium size lets the earrings swing freely with every movement of the head, bringing life to the neckline and hairline.

The black of onyx was linked in old craft traditions with strength, endurance and self-assurance - a symbol well suited to jewelry worn every day, not just on special occasions. Silver and good stones get more expensive year after year, so buying this quality at this price makes sense today. The setting is made of refined European silver 925, a pure alloy free of nickel and other harmful metal additives - it can be worn without worrying about allergies or skin irritation. A layer of rhodium protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, so the shine stays clear for a long time. The silver also carries a French maker's mark struck onto the metal, registered at the assay office in France, attesting to its origin.

The black of onyx pairs beautifully with a romantic look - a lace blouse in powder pink, a dress in a small pastel print, or a soft cream-white sweater. With hair down and lightly curled, the earrings peek out from beneath the strands only when the head moves, and that is when the onyx catches the eye. They also look good with hair pulled up, when the whole neckline is exposed. At 3.6 g, they can be worn all day without discomfort.
