Belak, balanced by the quiet lustre of freshwater pearls.
The traditional Timorese Belak is associated with bravery and honour. Here, its circular form is reinterpreted as a 2cm earring and paired with the quiet lustre of freshwater pearl.
Each Belak is individually cut, shaped and marked by hand. Look closely and you'll see the evidence of that process — slight variations in the circular form, individually punched markings and fine traces left by the maker's hand.
The freshwater pearls bring their own variations in shape, surface and lustre.
Each Belak carries the marks of making. Each pearl carries the marks of nature.
Materials: 24ct gold vermeil over sterling silver; freshwater pearls
Belak: approximately 2cm diameter
Drop length: approximately 3 cm.
Fastening: Stud
Made: Individually by hand in Brighton
Availability: Made in small numbers. Only one pair available in this collection launch.
24ct gold vermeil is applied over a sterling silver base to a minimum thickness of 2.5 microns.
Natural variations in both the handmade Belak and freshwater pearls mean your pair will differ subtly from the photographs.
