EOS Earrings Sandblasted 18kt yellow gold and diamonds The earrings radiate a soft, sunlit warmth. Their matte surface captures light with subtlety, creating a gentle and enduring glow. At the heart of each piece rests a natural, white, step-cut diamond. Framed by flowing lines and delicate pavé diamonds, its architectural brilliance recalls the moment dawn first appears on the horizon: quiet, luminous and full of promise.
