Requiem sharks are the largest family of sharks in the sea, the tiger shark, the blue shark and the reef sharks among them. They are built with nothing extra, every line of the body there for a reason.

The earrings are made the same way: a single hollow nugget of gold for each ear, brushed so the surface stays soft and matte, sitting flat against the lobe. At the center of each one is a single diamond, 0.02 carat for the pair. They close with butterfly backs.

They come in three sizes: 4.6 by 7.7 mm, small enough to disappear into an everyday stack, 8 by 9 mm for every day, and 11 by 12 mm for more presence on the ear.

One pair in 4.6 x 7.7 mm and two pairs each in 8 x 9 mm and 11 x 12 mm are finished and in the studio now, all in 14K yellow gold. Every other gold is made to order.

The same hollow nugget runs through the Cushion Star Ring and the Arthropod necklace. The smallest size also tops the Flameback Drop Earrings.
