Before choosing a direction.
How do colour and movement differ across these earrings?
The Ruby Rain Earrings repeat ruby drops through diamond clusters, while the Aqua & Demantoid Earrings contrast step-cut aquamarines with round demantoid drops. The Morganite & Pearl Earrings introduce pearls and rose gold. Look at the sequence of stones, the length of each drop and the relationship between the top and terminal element.
Are all pink or orange stones in the archive sapphires?
No. Some records identify pink sapphire, while others say pink gem or padparadscha-tone gem. A colour description is not a laboratory identification. Use the precise wording on the individual work page and ask the atelier about any detail you need confirmed.
What should I share for a bespoke pair of earrings?
Describe the colours, approximate drop length and occasions you have in mind. Mention your preferred fastening and any comfort considerations. A reference work can convey a direction without implying that its size, stones or construction will be repeated.
For pricing, materials and timing, read about the commission process and speak with the atelier about your own brief.
