These particular earrings can be purchased on their own, or they can be paired with a matching pendant. The rich colors and innovative styling are hallmarks of pieces by this designer, and we are proud to have a productive and long-standing relationship with Galatea.
Carved Tahitian Pearls
The main body of each earring in this set is an 11mm black Tahitian pearl that’s been carved to resemble a rose. The grooves and curves that divide up the surface of the pearl form the outlines of flower petals that overlap and curl outward, ultimately converging on the larger indentation in the pearl’s front surface.
Yellow Gold and Diamonds
This indentation is covered with an inlay of 14k yellow gold, and this brings some classical warmth as well as a striking contrast to the design. In the center of the indentation, a small round diamond is bright cut set, with the two together totaling 0.05 carats. Despite their relatively small size, the brilliant sparkle of the diamonds stands out clearly next to the shine of the yellow gold and the rich, dark tones of the pearls. Earrings
The diamonds add a glamorous flair, and the combination of materials used overall helps to highlight the intricate details of the design. The soft sheen of the surface of the pearls shows off the exquisitely-detailed carving, while the smooth, polished yellow gold reflects the light up onto the diamond in the center of each piece, helping to increase its shine.
