The warm, honey-brown cabochon of tiger's eye carries a silky sheen that glides across the stone's surface like a narrow band of brighter light. This is the cat's eye effect, characteristic of this quartz variety, best seen in natural daylight. The dangle form of these earrings, styled in a boho and vintage spirit, moves freely with every turn of the head, bringing life to the neckline and hair. Tiger's eye was once associated with stability and inner balance, but today it is prized mainly for its deep, sunny colour.

Only a small portion of the sorted raw material makes it into the finished piece - what matters is the fibre pattern and clarity of colour, which is why the two tiger's eye stones in these earrings are matched for colour and grain. Silver and good natural stones get more expensive year after year, so buying at this price makes sense today. Refined silver of European quality is coated with hand-applied enamel, and the 925 fineness confirms the purity of the alloy, free of nickel and harmful additives. The piece is signed with a maker's mark struck into the metal, registered with the French assay office, which attests to its origin.

These earrings sit well with everyday, natural fabrics - a sand-toned linen shirt, a cotton dress or a loose sweater in heavy wool. Loose, gently wavy hair reveals their dangling form and lets the stone catch the eye without competing with the rest of the outfit. In the cooler months they pair well with a suede jacket and beige tones, in summer with linen dresses in earthy shades. The big size and a weight of 6.1 grams give the earrings a distinct yet still light presence by the face.
