Iolanthe - gold

This is the style of earrings which I seem to sell the most of - I just call them 'Curves'. This pair features 14k gold-fill curves and 'fancy-cut' briolettes of Iolite - the fact that they are cut and faceted in a spiral means that they reflect the light beautifully.

Price: £38

Iolanthe - silver

These slender Sterling Silver curve earrings are adorned with lovely spiral-cut briolettes of Iolite. I think Iolite is particularly beautiful because the colour varies according to the angle at which you look through it...  most of the time it is a dark translucent blue, but sometimes it is almost clear. I find that effect quite intriguing...



Price: £30.

Aves Silver Feather Earrings

Long pendant 'Aves' earrings featuring textured Rhodium-plated* feathers connected to Sterling Silver lever-back hooks via faceted rondelles of deep blue Iolite. The feathers measure 4.4cm long.

*Rhodium is widely used as a plating for White Gold to keep it from tarnishing and is generally well tolerated by nickel-allergy sufferers.

Iolite Curves


This is the style of earrings which I seem to sell the most of - I just call them 'Curves'. This pair was made especially for a friend, who loves to wear midnight blue with black.
The curves themselves are 14k gold-fill and the gemstones are 'fancy-cut' briolettes of Iolite - the fact that they are cut and faceted in a spiral means that they reflect the light beautifully.
