Faceted black onyx catches the light in sharp flashes as you move your head, scattering reflections differently across its dark surface with every turn. Two onyx stones set in small studs don't weigh down the earlobe, and their minimalist form stays close to the face, discreetly framing the jawline and hairline. In traditional jewelry craft, onyx was associated with strength, resilience and self-confidence - that association still lingers today, though in these earrings it's above all the stone's deep, matte black that matters.

Only a small portion of the raw material examined makes it into these studs - what counts is purity of colour and regularity of the facets, so the final selection is narrow. This kind of selection keeps the stone's quality high without pushing the price beyond what's reasonable. Silver and good stones get more expensive year on year, so buying at this price today looks like a sound decision. The earrings are made of refined European sterling silver 925, coated with a layer of rhodium - this metal is hard and resistant, protecting the surface from tarnishing and scratches, and keeping the shine intact for a long time without extra cleaning. A pure alloy free of nickel and other allergenic additives makes them comfortable even for sensitive skin. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which attests the origin of the silver.

These studs fit naturally into an urban, everyday style - under a white shirt with rolled-up sleeves, with a leather jacket and plain jeans. Dark onyx doesn't get lost against loose hair, and with hair tied up it stands out clearly against a bare neck. Their small size and weight of 1.0 g mean they can be worn from morning to evening without any feeling of heaviness. This is jewelry for everyday wear, not just for special occasions.
