Solitaire Earrings
Solitaire earrings are made up of a single stone. Although understated, single-stone jewellery exudes elegance, particularly when the stone is a classic, sparkling diamond.
The number of prongs determines the shape of the diamond or gem. A design with four prongs gives the stone an angular shape for a contemporary feel, while a settlement with six prongs gives the diamond a rounder, more classic shape.
At BAUNAT, choose solitaire earrings tailored to your tastes with the traditional round brilliant cut, the modern princess cut or the unique oval cut — and choose a precious metal to bring out the sparkle of the stone. The final look promises to be stunning.
Sapphire
Sapphires are precious gemstones that consist of the mineral corundum. Blue sapphires are the most common, but yellow, orange and purple sapphires also exist.
After diamonds and moissanite, sapphires are the third hardest material on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness.
The symbolism of sapphires has changed over time. People also used to believe that a blue sapphire protected you against magic and witchcraft. According to Hindustani superstition, a sapphire brings good luck to the wearer under the influence of the planet of Saturn.
Today, sapphires mainly symbolise truth, love, purity and sincerity. With its intense blue appearance, the sapphire is perfect as an accent colour for a beautiful pair of earrings or an engagement ring.
