The delicate, smoky pink of quartz in these earrings has a warm, muted tone - closer to a powdery dawn than an intense pink. Two rose quartz stones with a cabochon cut are set in a dangle form, encircled by a halo of 48 tiny cubic zirconia stones that catch the light with every turn of the head. The modern, elongated silhouette measuring 3.5 cm ends freely below the earlobe, so the earrings move along the jawline and exposed neck, drawing the eye without excess.

Such rose quartz, with its clear colour and no clouding, is a stone easy to overlook on a shelf yet hard to match with another as fine. Silver prices are rising, and good stones in this shade are becoming rarer, so today's price for these earrings remains reasonable. The rhodium-plated surface of refined sterling silver 925 from European refining does not tarnish or dull, so the earrings need no frequent cleaning and keep their shine for a long time. A pure alloy free of nickel and harmful metal additives can be worn without worry of skin irritation. The French maker's mark on the metal is a guarantee of the silver's quality and origin. Rose quartz has long been associated with love and tenderness, making these earrings a natural choice as a gift for someone close to you.

Styled in total black - a black turtleneck or a plain blouse without pattern - the earrings become the single point of light near the face. Hair pulled back or gathered into a bun reveals the neckline and lets you fully appreciate the movement of the stone with every turn of the head. At 4.6 grams, despite their large size, the earrings wear light throughout the day, from a morning meeting to an evening out.
