These boho dangle earrings catch the eye with a delicate sway at every turn of the head. Two cabochon-cut amethysts shimmer in deep purple that shifts from darker shades to a cool, bright glint as the earring turns. Enameled silver frames the stones with a thin, matte edge, so it's the amethyst's colour that leads the eye while the form stays light and easy, sitting close to the hair and the line of the neck. In ancient cultures the purple of amethyst was linked to calm and clarity of mind - here it returns as a symbol of balance, not a promise of effect.

Every amethyst is assessed for colour and clarity before it's set, which keeps the price reasonable despite the exceptional quality. Silver and good coloured stones get more expensive year after year, so buying earrings like these today makes sense price-wise. The earrings are made from pure, refined sterling silver 925, an alloy free of nickel and other irritating additives, which those with sensitive skin will appreciate. The enamel is applied by hand, layer by layer, and the piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, confirming the origin of the metal.

These earrings suit romantic outfits well: a lace blouse in powder pink, a dress with a small floral print, or a linen shirt in a pastel shade. Loose, softly waved hair reveals their movement with every step, and the purple of the amethyst brings life to muted, light-coloured clothing. They also work well with a simple braid, when a bare neck gives them full room to play with the light. Their medium size and weight of 5.2 grams make them comfortable to wear all day long.
