Delicate and modern, this dangle earrings design builds its character around two rose quartz cabochons in a warm, powdery hue. The cabochon cut brings out the stone's soft, inner glow, which brushes against the neckline and hair with every turn of the head. The simple, slender medium form, 3 cm long, does not overwhelm the face - rose quartz stays at the centre of attention, with the silver setting simply framing it. This is a stone long associated with tenderness and harmonious relationships, which makes it a popular gift choice.

Each of the two rose quartz stones was inspected individually before being paired together - what mattered was purity of colour and the absence of cloudiness. A natural, carefully matched stone like this at this price is a rarity today, as good specimens are rising in price along with silver. They are set in refined European 925 silver, rhodium-plated with a layer of hard metal that protects against tarnishing and scratches - less cleaning, longer-lasting shine. The silver, stamped with the French maker's mark, attests to the metal's origin.

These earrings sit well with everyday knitwear - a soft sweater in cool grey or beige gives the stone's powdery pink room to play. In monochromatic outfits, where the look stays within one tone, it is the rose quartz that catches the eye and warms up the whole ensemble. Loose hair or a simple ponytail reveal the neckline and let the dangling form be fully appreciated. At 2.2 g, they wear lightly all day long.
