Handmade Marquise Moonstone Earrings in a Cut Out Mirrored Silver Frame
Moonstone does something no other gemstone quite manages. Turn it in the light and a soft glow seems to drift beneath the surface, moving as you move, as though the stone were holding a little moonlight of its own. These marquise moonstone earrings frame that effect in a contemporary cut out setting of mirrored sterling silver, so the glow of the stone is set against clean, bright metal and open space.
They are made by the master stone setter behind our moonstone collection, and they bring the same precision and calm elegance to a new, more architectural frame.
The Stone: Moonstone and Its Adularescence
The soft, floating glow inside moonstone is called adularescence. It is created by light scattering between the microscopic layers of the stone’s structure, which is why it seems to move rather than sit on the surface. No two stones glow in quite the same way, and it is the reason moonstone has been treasured for centuries, long associated with calm, intuition and the rhythm of the moon. It is also the birthstone for June.
The marquise cut suits it well. The elongated, pointed shape gives the glow a long line to travel along, and it lengthens the look of the neck and jaw as the earring moves.
The Setting: Cut Out Frame, Mirrored Silver
The frame is cut away to create open space around the stone, so the moonstone appears to float within a clean silver outline rather than being closed in by it. The high mirror polish of the sterling silver 925 catches the light from every direction, adding a bright edge that makes the quiet glow of the stone feel even softer by contrast.
At 38 mm on a hook, these marquise moonstone earrings sit comfortably between delicate and statement. They are light for all day wear and hypoallergenic throughout.
A Gift for June and Beyond
A natural choice for a June birthday, or for anyone who loves a gemstone with a little quiet magic. They sit beautifully alongside the moonstone drop earrings, ring and bracelets from the same collection, and make a thoughtful gift on their own.
