It’s not often you see a designer work with gold leaf, but it’s precisely that material that makes this pair of earrings so dazzling. The Sand Leaf drop styles on karat gold wire are made in Emanuela Duca’s signature organic look of tumbled metal, and the warm 23k gold leaf application contrasts beautifully with the bright tones of the sterling silver. JCK pulled these for use in our model photography for the November issue, and everyone on set agreed that for a well-priced pair of earrings, they made a big fine jewelry statement.
