N°39 Mother's Day 2025 Special Set

This Is What Quiet Reef Strength Looks Like

While diving in Indonesia, I photographed a giant clam whose mantle looked almost unreal—whorls of bright blue, white, and powdery tones rippling like silk underwater. The way the clam's delicate tissue shimmered in the filtered sunlight, creating a play of translucent whites, vivid blues, and gentle grey-blues, directly inspired the materials and design of this jewelry set.

The white Selenite pieces in the set capture the clam's semi-translucent, ethereal surface, perfectly echoing the way the mantle lets in and bends light. Selenite's silky, luminous texture feels almost like touching the clam's tender folds. The deep blue Kyanite stones reflect the vibrant electric blue veins running across the mantle, their polished yet slightly fibrous surfaces mimicking the organic flow of color underwater. The Dumortierite, with its muted indigo and denim hues, mirrors the softer shadows and gradients I observed across the clam’s flesh where it curled and moved with the tide. Each stone choice wasn't just about color—it was about capturing the very feel and flow of life underwater, right down to the way light dances across the surfaces.

When I wear these pieces, I feel like I’m carrying the essence of the reef’s hidden sophistication with me. The stones are smooth but strong, just like the clam’s tissue that has evolved to protect and thrive. The calming hues bring a natural confidence to my outfit, while the slight shimmer in the Selenite catches just enough light to turn heads (in a "clamorous" way, of course). 

There are two pairs of earrings to choose from, depending on your mood:

• The larger gold disk earrings studded with kyanite are like bubbles—expanding and catching the light as they rise. They feel like the joyful, upward path your bubbles take while you descend downward—two opposing, perfect movements.
• The small, delicate drop earrings are quieter—like the tiny suspended plankton you pass on the way down. Barely noticeable at first, but rich in life and possibility when you pause to look closely.

This set is a reminder that sometimes the most extraordinary beauty comes from the quietest creatures.
