Sinan Expressions Earrings

A pair of one carat natural tanzanites, round cut, lifted on 18k white gold and held each in a halo of VVS natural diamonds. Tanzanite is mined in a single place, the Merelani Hills near Kilimanjaro, and the colour shifts from clear blue in daylight to deeper violet under warm light. Each earring is engraved with a mashrabiya motif behind the setting, geometry drawn from the carved screens of Islamic architecture. The form is named for Mimar Sinan, the chief Ottoman architect of Süleymaniye and Selimiye. Hand applied sky blue enamel deepens the stones. Worn under hair pulled back, the blue reads cool against the neck; worn with a closed collar, the stone is what the room sees first.
