These handcrafted earrings are a piece from The Garden of Hesperides collection, inspired by a magical twilight grove in Greek Mythology. This sanctuary is filled with rare orchids in purple, violet, dark pink and white. It holds the golden apples of immortality that hang from a silver tree at its centre, guarded by the Hesperides, nymphs of the evening. The gems for this collection were chosen to represent the mystical orchids in this dreamlike place. Celestial accents and orchid flowers in silver adorn many pieces to symbolise the twilight sky above and the beautiful growth below. The apples of eternal life are paid tribute to by golden spheres crafted from recycled brass, bringing together a collection deep with magic and meaning.
These earrings bring the story to life through two luminous purple Amethysts, that glow like a sky draped in dusk. As with all my work, they are entirely one of a kind, handcrafted from recycled precious metals and created using cruelty-free practices, ethically sourced crystals, and environmentally conscious methods.

💎 AMETHYST LORE
Once treasured as a “gem of fire,” Amethyst was held in the highest regard by ancient civilizations — so highly, in fact, that it was valued as dearly as Diamonds. Its rich purple hue was thought to embody divine power, worn by royalty, warriors, and high priests alike as a symbol of protection, clarity, and spiritual insight.
Today, Amethyst is the birthstone for February and remains a cherished talisman of creativity, calm, and connection to the inner self. Long associated with the third eye and crown chakras, it is believed to inspire intuition, enhance artistic flow, and create space for peace and stillness within the heart. A stone for dreamers and seekers, it is often used to soothe anxiety, bring harmony to living spaces, and support healing for people, plants and animals alike. Whether worn for its beauty or its energetic properties, Amethyst continues to radiate its ancient, quiet power — a gemstone touched by starlight and spirit.
