A flash of vivid green framed in warm yellow gold.
These elegant drop earrings feature natural chrome diopside, a gemstone loved for its remarkably intense green colour. Each round stone sits within a flowing, interwoven 9ct yellow gold setting, giving the design a sense of movement while allowing the gemstone to remain the focus.
The contrast is what makes them so beautiful: rich forest green against polished yellow gold, with a graceful hook fitting that gives just enough movement when worn.
Part of The Gemstone Gift Edit, they’re an easy way to give something colourful, distinctive and a little less expected.
Chrome diopside has one of those colours that hardly needs any help — its naturally vivid green has an almost emerald-like intensity.
We love these earrings because the setting doesn’t overpower it. The sculptural gold curves frame the stones beautifully, while the drops remain light, wearable and easy enough for every day.
And paired with the matching pendant, they make a rather lovely little gemstone set. 💚
