These stud earrings bring a cool, subtle shimmer right to the line of the face. Two cabochon-cut moonstones, viewed against the light, reveal a distinctive blue flash that shifts across the stone's surface with every turn of the head. Before they're set, we assess each stone for the clarity and depth of that flash, since this determines how it will behave in daylight and in the evening. In old craft tradition moonstone was linked to intuition, inner awareness and meditation, which makes it a fitting choice for a gift with a personal touch.

The availability of valuable stones is limited by nature itself, and silver and other precious metals have been steadily rising in price in recent years. That's why buying now, with a carefully chosen stone at a reasonable price, makes sense. The setting is rhodium-plated 925 silver - the rhodium layer protects the surface against tarnishing and loss of shine for a long time. The 925 fineness confirms the purity of the alloy used, and the silver itself comes from European refining. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark - a legally protected mark registered with the French assay office, which attests the origin of the metal.

These earrings sit well in office styling: paired with a smooth shirt and a fitted blazer in a muted shade of blue, the moonstone's blue flash draws the eye without excess shine. Hair pulled into a bun or a simple ponytail reveals the neckline and lets the stone come fully into play by the ear. The minimalist form of the stud doesn't draw attention away from the face, it simply completes it gently. At 2.1 grams, the earrings wear lightly all day, from a morning meeting to an evening out.
