The shapes within the design of the Athena earrings were inspired by the striking forms and characteristics of basalt rocks. Crafted from sterling silver to reflect the unique geometric shapes of basalt that results from its rapid cooling (as it transforms from volcanic magma). Combined with the lustre of the 11mm white South Sea pearl and the bezel-set fine white diamond, the Athena earrings are a beautiful and distinctive treasure. Matching necklace available.
