Annette Ferdinandsen Small 14K Gold and White Mother-of-Pearl Luna Earrings with Diamond Craters

A full moon made to wear. Each disc of natural white mother-of-pearl is cut thin, so it moves with you and shifts from cream to silver to a quiet rainbow in changing light. Two round brilliant diamonds sit low in each face like craters catching the light, and a sprouting 14K gold leaf crowns the French wire. Light on the ear, impossible to miss across a table.

Caring for Mother-of-Pearl

Mother-of-pearl is organic and softer than gemstones. Put these on after lotion, perfume and hairspray, wipe with a soft dry cloth after wearing, and store them on their own so nothing scratches the surface. Skip ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips.

Why We Carry Annette Ferdinandsen

Annette trained at the Rhode Island School of Design and makes every piece by hand in her studio in New York's Hudson Valley. Her work begins in the natural world: ginkgo leaves, feathers, bees, the moon. It ends as fine jewelry with real presence. That is the same standard we hold our estate and heirloom pieces to: made by hand, made to last, and made by someone you can name. She is independent, American-made, and her pieces look like no one else's. We are proud to carry her in Mystic.
