Alika Ruby Stud Earrings

Katie's trips to Jaipur are centred around seeking out colourful gemstones with unusual hues and hand crafted forms.  After several decades of working in India,  her love for all things gemstone has only increased and defines the jewellery she creates. 

These gemstone stud earrings are set with organically shaped, rose cut ruby gemstones.  A rose cut is one of the oldest styles of gemstone faceting originating in the sixteenth century.  This cut has a flat base and a domed top with triangular facets, said to draw inspiration from the placement of petals on a rose-bud.

Materials: the stud earrings are made of gold plated sterling silver and are set with ruby gemstones.

Details: the earrings have a traditional post and butterfly fixture and are 15 mm at their widest.  Ellie wears the labradorite version of these earrings with our Anna Long Gemstone Necklace.
