Akoya Pearl & Blue Topaz Drop Earrings 18ct Yellow Gold 9–9.5mm Pearl

The combination of icy blue topaz and lustrous white Akoya pearl is one of those pairings that simply works; cool and warm, brilliant and glowing, contemporary and timeless all at once. These drop earrings are striking in the best possible way: a bezel-set faceted blue topaz stud at the top, from which a magnificent 9–9.5mm white Akoya pearl suspends on a fine 18ct yellow gold link below.

At 9–9.5mm, these are notably large Akoya pearls, towards the upper end of the size range for this pearl type, and displaying the exceptional high-gloss lustre and near-perfect roundness that makes Akoya the most prized saltwater cultured pearl in fine jewellery. The generous size gives these earrings a genuinely impressive drop that moves beautifully and catches the eye from across a room.

The faceted blue topaz top brings a flash of cool, aquamarine-toned brilliance that lifts the white pearl below and makes the warm 18ct yellow gold setting sing. This is a pair of earrings designed to be noticed, equally at home at a wedding, a formal dinner, or any occasion where you want to make a quietly confident impression.

A truly memorable gift for a significant birthday, anniversary, or wedding, blue topaz is the birthstone for December and a traditional gift for a 4th wedding anniversary, while pearl is June's birthstone and marks a 30th anniversary. Together they make this a particularly meaningful choice for a wide range of occasions. Arrives beautifully presented and ready to give.
