Description
THE PIECE
The SALINA earclips sundial shells mother-of-pearl are a one-of-a-kind piece with clean maritime presence: gold-rimmed sundial shells as the calm surface, paired with mother-of-pearl cabochons as a focused, luminous centre—set in 18k gold-plated sterling silver.
Shell diameter is 3 cm | 1.2 in; sundial shells are also available in 2.5 cm or 3.5 cm. Clips or studs are available on request, so the piece works equally well if you prefer earclips.
DESIGN & SILHOUETTE
SALINA is built on a simple, strong logic: shell as surface, cabochon as point. The gold rim draws a crisp outline, which keeps the look graphic—yet still natural.
At 3 cm, the silhouette feels present, but controlled. And because the design relies on contour and proportion, it reads composed rather than decorative.
MATERIALS & CHARACTER – SALINA earclips sundial shells mother-of-pearl
Sundial shells bring natural pattern and texture; the gold rim keeps the edge defined and clean. Mother-of-pearl sits as a cabochon at the centre—smooth, bright, with a fine sheen that shifts with light. In the SALINA earclips sundial shells mother-of-pearl, the balance is deliberate: maritime surface, a calm light core, and warm gold plating framing it all.
Three micro details define the piece: the gold-rimmed shell disc, the mother-of-pearl cabochon point, and the 18k gold-plated sterling silver setting that ties the composition together.
ARTIST’S NOTE
“Studio note: nature as surface—mother-of-pearl as point. The rest is proportion.”
STYLING INSPIRATION
Strong with white, black, sand, cream or denim: the gold rim reads like a fine line, and mother-of-pearl brings light without noise. Best with smooth fabrics and clean tailoring, because the outline stays crisp.
Keep jewellery minimal—slim gold bands or a quiet necklace—so the sundial shell remains the focus and the look stays curated.
