Quail elegance – Inside Out
€2,145.00
Elegance with a touch of playfulness
These handcrafted 14kt yellow gold earrings from the Inside Out collection combine sophistication with a subtle sense of humour. The combination of grey Tahitian pearls and speckled quartz pawls creates a striking and playful contrast.
The design is delicate and balanced. The pearls shine with a soft metallic glow, while the slightly translucent quartz adds a natural softness. Due to their length and movement—totalling 7.5 cm—the earrings fall gracefully along the face, striking just the right balance between elegance and expression.
The inspiration behind the design
While making it, the quartz reminded me of tiny quail eggs. That light, speckled pattern gave the design an unexpectedly playful touch. It is just these kinds of chance discoveries that make working with natural materials so inspiring. Each pair is created step by step, with attention to form, colour and movement.
The Inside Out collection is all about innovation and growth. By combining familiar materials differently, a new harmony is created between shine and structure, tranquillity and playfulness. These earrings are a bright example of that: classic in form, but with an unexpected twist.
About the materials
Tahiti pearls are among the most extraordinary pearls in the world. They are formed by the black lip oyster and are known for their natural grey to silver glow. Each pearl is unique in hue and brilliance, giving them an almost mystical appearance.
The pamphlets of quartz – carefully cut and polished – have a subtle, natural speckling reminiscent of quail eggs. No two pieces are identical, giving each pair of earrings its own character and nuance. Together, they provide an airy counterpoint to the rich lustre of the gold and pearls.
Timeless and versatile
These earrings are designed to be worn. They move smoothly and match both a classic evening gown and a simple white shirt. It is precisely this versatility that makes them timeless.
Only one of this pair exists. Handmade, exclusive and with attention to detail – a piece of jewellery that exudes both strength and sophistication.
You are welcome to see and experience these earrings in my studio in Beltrum.
