For these earrings from our workshop, we’ve set a water-blue, luminous aquamarine in a wide setting of shiny white gold. Two small diamonds above the aquamarine add sparkling points of light. Practical leverbacks make it easy to put on the earrings and ensure they stay securely in place. The basic shape of the earrings is a pendant that moves gracefully beneath the ear, reflecting light in a myriad of ways. The design echoes the oval shape of the aquamarine and frames it like a border. The resulting pendant resembles a mirror or a window into a mysterious, sparkling, otherworldly realm. We drew inspiration from pieces of Art Deco jewellery when designing these earrings, both in terms of their design language and the cool, elegant materials used. The first pair of earrings was crafted by our goldsmiths here in Berlin using traditional handcrafted techniques. We then had this pair cast in a small limited edition using traditional techniques in southern Germany. The diamonds and aquamarines were subsequently set by hand into the earrings in Idar-Oberstein. The earrings are therefore unworn and entirely made in Germany.

Aquamarine is the blue variety of the mineral beryl, to which emerald also belongs. But while emeralds have been sought-after and prized gemstones for centuries, aquamarines did not become a true fashion gem until the early 20th century. New discoveries in Brazil contributed to this trend, as did the advent of electric lighting, as aquamarine looks particularly beautiful under electric light. Numerous publications from the early 20th century refer to this characteristic of aquamarine: “All beryls are very brilliant under artificial light and are therefore desirable stones for evening wear,” wrote Helen Bartlett Bridgman in 1915, for example.
