Two lapis lazuli cabochons open these dangle earrings with a distinctly vintage look. The deep, saturated navy hue of the stone shimmers with fine, golden flecks of pyrite that catch the light with every turn of the head. The simple, slender stud line draws the eye toward the neckline and hairline, and the gentle sway of the earrings while walking brings the whole hairstyle to life.

Only a small portion of the sorted raw material makes it into production, since what matters is a deep, even colour free of discolouration. This kind of selection makes particular sense now, as silver and quality coloured stones keep rising in price and lapis lazuli of this quality is getting harder to find. The rhodium coating on the silver protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, so the earrings need cleaning less often. Beneath it lies refined European silver, sterling silver 925, pure and nickel-free, offering comfort even for sensitive skin. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, a legally protected mark registered with the assay office in France, which attests the metal's origin. In old beliefs, lapis lazuli was linked to idealism, intuition and harmony, adding a layer of symbolic depth to these earrings.

For everyday wear, the earrings bring a nice contrast to urban casual looks: jeans, a white shirt and a leather jacket gain a bit more character alongside them. Worn down, hair that reveals the ear lets the navy colour of the stone stand out fully against the skin. With hair tied back, the earrings highlight the line of the neck and cheeks, creating a calm yet distinct styling accent. They weigh 3.7 g, so despite their dangling form they stay light and comfortable all day long.
