N°097 Statement Earrings - The Sri Lanka Collection

Written in Manganese

Sri Lanka gave me a completely new appreciation for the colours of earth. Beyond all the outrageous tropical pinks, blues and greens was another Sri Lanka altogether: elephant grey, temple ochre, cinnamon, scorched grass, weathered stone and earth so dark it was almost black.

Each stone resembles a fragment of ancient calligraphy or an impossibly delicate ink painting, except nobody painted it. The dark dendritic markings are created naturally by mineral deposits, including manganese oxides & iron oxides, producing lines that wander across the stone like grasses, branches, horizons and mysterious characters from some language the earth neglected to teach us.

In these earrings, I used Landscape Jasper with deep blue faceted Quartz crystals, set into a 22k gold-plated base from Istanbul & Seoul- simplicity with a bang (6.5cm long). 

Like all our pieces, these one-of-a-kind earrings are handcrafted with love and care in our studio in Lennox Head. 
The earrings will be beautifully gift-wrapped and ready as an exceptional gift for yourself or an unexpected gift for someone special.
