Each pair is carefully hand-matched by me. I lay out all the stones, examine each individual gemstone, and thoughtfully pair them based on shape, size, and overall appearance. It’s a process that takes time and attention—but it ensures that your earrings are as beautifully matched as nature allows.

Your pair may not be identical (because nature isn’t), but they are intentionally chosen to complement each other. That’s the beauty of wearing something real.
