Description
THE PIECE
The Marettimo earrings marble cone shells paua are a one-of-a-kind maritime statement: marble cone shells edged in gold paired with paua shell cabochons—organic form, crisp outline, iridescent depth.
Shell diameter is 3 cm (1.2 in); 2.5 cm and 3.5 cm options are also available. Set in 18k gold-plated sterling silver.
DESIGN & SILHOUETTE
The silhouette reads like a small object at the ear: the shell brings volume, the gold rim keeps the line precise. Paua stays calm and refined as a polished cabochon—never flashy.
MATERIALS & CHARACTER
Marble cone shells bring natural structure; the gold rim frames them like a fine contour. Paua shifts from deep blue-green to iridescent depending on the light, kept controlled by the cabochon cut. In the Marettimo earrings marble cone shells paua, the balance is deliberate: organic form, precise finish.
ARTIST’S NOTE
“Studio note: the form feels maritime—the paua sheen makes it modern.”
STYLING INSPIRATION
Strong with white, black, cream or linen—so shell texture, gold rim and cabochon read cleanly. Especially good with smooth fabrics and open necklines.
Pair with minimal gold: slim bands or a quiet necklace keep the earrings as the focal point.
