Atlas Spur Earrings
Chiaroscuro
Named for Atlas, who held the globe. Two long arms cross and take a box between them, spiked where they meet, the form of a spur drawn out at the scale of a giant's hold.
Inside each sits a fancy-cut amethyst in deep violet, its concave faceting throwing a star out from the centre. Reverse-set diamonds open apertures across the shibuichi around it, revealing ochre, scorched copper and mineralised desert tones held within the alloy.

Shibuichi is a historical Japanese alloy composed primarily of silver and copper. Traditionally employed in metalwork for its subtle tonal range, it develops depth through controlled patination. The amethysts were cut and supplied by a master gem cutter based in the United Kingdom. The diamonds were obtained through a specialist dealer operating in Portugal. Supplier declarations and purchase documentation are retained where available. Provenance is described in accordance with the atelier’s Ethical Practice framework.
