WE ENDORSE...

Originally featuring simple black onyx or white mother-of-pearl charms, then expanded to include coloured gemstones like lapis lazuli and malachite, the collection now looks more dazzling than ever with pendants in snakewood and guilloche gold. The dainty, everyday pieces make the most thoughtful gifts too – snakewood symbolises good luck and reassurance, and guilloche gold is said to represent sparkling joy. Who doesn’t want some of that?
