Gold Sapphire Earring with Antique Mother of Pearl

A distinctive pair of Donna Chambers earrings, crafted in 14K gold and set with deep blue sapphires, centered around intricately carved mother-of-pearl elements inspired by antique Chinese gambling chips.

The composition blends structure and symbolism—balancing geometric clarity with delicate, ornamental detail. The luminous surface of mother-of-pearl contrasts beautifully with the richness of sapphire, while subtle pearl and drop accents introduce movement and warmth.

Unusual in both reference and execution, the earrings read as more than adornment—they carry the presence of collected objects, shaped by history and reinterpreted through a contemporary lens.
