Cabochon d’Émeraude Mckella Earrings

Twin molten shields of 18k gold-plated stainless steel cradle a deep emerald cabochon like the heart of an ancient forest caught mid-breath. This design draws inspiration from the protective talismans of antiquity, prioritizing volume and presence over delicate invisibility. The focal point is the emerald, cut as a smooth, high-domed cabochon rather than a faceted gem. This tactile choice highlights the stone’s saturated, velvety green depths, recalling the mossy silence of a woodland sanctuary rather than the sharp flash of a ballroom.

The gemstone is encased in a "voluptuous" bezel that swells in quiet sovereignty, blurring the line between the setting and the jewel. This substantial rim of gold is polished to a mirror-bright intensity, acting as a radiant frame that amplifies the mysterious darkness of the center stone like dawn breaking on a secret Riviera. Bold yet intimate, these studs are nature distilled into radiance, a whispered pair of eternities worn against the pulse, perfect for the woman who seeks grounding energy in her everyday adornments.
