Gold Clover Stud Earrings – Black Onyx, Beaded Border

Flat black onyx ringed by a row of gold beads big enough to count one by one.

Made from 925 sterling silver under a layer of 18K gold, set with black onyx.

The silver underneath is nickel-free, lead-free and cadmium-free to European standards — hypoallergenic, and comfortable for most sensitive ears.

The onyx gives nothing back, so every bit of light in the earring collects in the beads around it — and the beads are what you pick up first from the other side of a table. Wear them against a fine gold chain and let the two golds carry the whole outfit. They arrive in a free jewellery box with a polishing cloth.
