The moonstone in these earrings shifts with every turn of the head - when light hits it from a different angle, a cool blue flash appears on the surface, as if the stone had been holding it just beneath its depths a moment before. The faceted cut breaks the light further into tiny points, so the effect feels lively rather than flat. The dangle form and modern, pared-down line let the earrings sit loosely by the ear and sway gently with each movement of the head, brushing the line of the neck. In old-time craft, moonstone was linked with intuition and inner focus, which makes it a popular choice for a gift with a personal character.

Both earrings feature carefully selected moonstones - what matters is clarity and depth of reflection, and only a stone that meets that standard makes it into the setting. Silver and good natural stones get more expensive year on year, so earrings at this price are a sensible choice today. They are set in refined European 925 silver, rhodium-plated with a metal layer resistant to scratching and tarnishing - so the shine lasts long, without dull patches. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark establishing its origin, registered with the assay office in France.

They come into their own best with total black - a black turtleneck or a simple top with a high neckline creates a backdrop against which the blue flash draws the eye as the brightest point of the whole look. Hair swept into a bun or tucked behind the ears further shows off the movement of the stone with every turn of the head. These are earrings for evening occasions, but they work just as well in the office with a simple, understated outfit. Two moonstones, a delicate weight of 2.0 g and a dangle silhouette give a lightness you can feel all day long.
