Two faceted tiger's eye stones catch the light with a golden, silky band at every turn of the head - the chatoyance familiar from this variety of quartz, which shifts like a narrow streak of shine as the earring turns. The setting is simple and modern, without unnecessary detail, so all the attention stays on the stone. In old-time jewelry craft, tiger's eye was linked with stability and renewal, and it is still often worn today for that reason, as a gift marking a new start.

Each stone in this pair was chosen individually, so that colour and banding match consistently across both earrings - handwork that is never a given with a natural material. Silver and good stones keep rising in price, and tiger's eye of this quality at this price is a rarity today. The setting is made of refined silver of European quality, sterling silver 925, coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine bright for years. The alloy is pure, free of the metal additives that cause allergic reactions, so the earrings can be worn with confidence even on sensitive skin. The piece is stamped with a maker's mark registered at the French assay office, which attests the origin of the metal.

For everyday wear, they look good with a soft cashmere or cotton sweater, in a muted, monochrome outfit - beige, camel, grey - where the stone's golden glint lifts the whole look without overstating it. Hair pulled into a loose bun or tucked behind the ears further shows off the play of light across the stone. At medium size and 4.6 g in weight, the earrings wear lightly all day, from the office to an evening out in simpler, darker clothing.
