Aquamarine Chunky Hoop Earring

A bold exploration of geometric forms, our Chunky Hoop Earring features a gold hoop hand engraved with fine lines to create a beautiful matte texture. Called bulino, for the Italian word for engraver, this type of finish dates back centuries. It is similar to the fine lines seen in book engravings, which originated in jewelry techniques. The master fifteenth-century engraver Albrecht Dürer trained as a goldsmith in his father's shop before turning those lines to use in his prints.

Suspended from this exceptional hoop is a polished round aquamarine with a beautiful cool blue color that perfectly complements the matte gold finish. The natural inclusions look like water.
