The cool blue of the aquamarine in these earrings brings to mind water at dawn - bright, clear, without a trace of cloudiness. The faceted cut breaks light into small glints that come alive with every turn of the head. The minimalist form of the studs sits close to the earlobe, drawing no attention away from the face, only gently highlighting the line of the neck and hair worn up or loose.

Each of the two aquamarines is assessed for colour and clarity before being set - that care in selecting the stone shows later in the modest price of the earrings. Silver and good coloured stones get more expensive year after year, so buying now makes sense price-wise. Refined European silver of 925 fineness stands behind the purity of this alloy, and it is precisely this fineness that confirms the metal contains no nickel or other harmful additives. A rhodium layer protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine intact for a long time. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark - a legally protected mark registered at the French assay office, which attests to the origin of the metal.

At a weight of 1.0 gram, the earrings wear practically without any perceptible weight, letting you forget they're even in your ears. They pair beautifully with a soft sweater in a cool grey or a cotton hoodie in ecru shades - the blue of the stone brings life to such muted outfits. They also look great with a simple bun and long, sleek hair, where the facets catch the light with every movement. These are earrings for days when a discreet yet distinct detail close to the face is what matters.
