Piece of the Week: Robinson Pelham’s ‘Tsar Star’ Earrings
The new pink sapphire version of the piece dances with its wearer in the brand’s “Icons After Dark” holiday campaign.
Holiday party season is upon us and our Piece of the Week, Robinson Pelham’s “Tsar Star” earrings, are the perfect sparkling accessory for a festive evening.
Debuting this season in the “Blaze” colorway, the 14-karat yellow gold earrings feature pink sapphires.
“Pink is an empowering, bold choice and part of our brand DNA,” said Vanessa Chilton, creative director of Robinson Pelham.
“After seeing the success of the silhouette in diamonds, we wanted to expand the capsule set to incorporate color, which is something we always celebrate at Robinson Pelham.”
The Tsar Star earrings are one of Robinson Pelham’s best-selling silhouettes.
The piece, which launched in 2017, is designed to be worn three ways.
The star stud can be worn on its own or styled with the star drop to the front of the ear for more brilliance or behind the ear for a modern twist.

The star stud can be worn on its own or styled with the star drop to the front of the ear for more brilliance or behind the ear for a modern twist.
The “Tsar Star” studs feature 0.98 carats of pink sapphire set in 14-karat yellow gold and can be worn on their own ($3,812)
The matching “Tsar Star” drops, with 1.63 carats of pink sapphires set in 14-karat yellow gold, add movement to the studs ($6,278).
The design was created to channel celestial magic and as a nod to the night sky, the brand said, as it features star motifs that sparkle though gemstones like a constellation.
The new pink Tsar Star earrings also made an appearance in Robinson Pelham’s holiday campaign titled “Icons After Dark.”
The campaign is an ode to the art of self-expression and the energy of night as the city comes alive, the brand said.
“It celebrates jewelry that moves with you, from the first cocktail to the last dance, accompanying every unforgettable moment with effortless ease,” said Chilton.
The campaign of video shorts, slow motion shots, and stills was set in the London nightclub The Cross and flows through five moments during a journey through the night.
Seasky London captured the campaign and led the production, and ideation was done by Formation Studio.
Molly Frey of Charlotte Tilbury Beauty did the makeup. The cosmetics brand's holiday campaign with Céline Dion also showcased the Tsar Star earrings but in the diamond version.
Icons After Dark starts at “The Arrival,” with a model in the brand’s black and gold jewels with diamonds arriving at the venue.
Then, “The Glance,” where an unforgettable look is exchanged across the bar, ushers in “The Dancefloor” chapter, where the Tsar Star earrings are featured.
The “Tsar Star” earrings ($9,506) are seen in The Dancefloor chapter of Robinson Pelham's “Icons After Dark” campaign, styled with a box chain with double diamond clasps ($6,930) and two “Tag” pendants, one set with tsavorite ($6,060) and the other with blue sapphire ($6,305).

A closeup shot of the model on the dance floor shows the earrings styled alongside a box chain with double diamond clasps and two “Tag” pendants.
“It was only natural that we would choose this gorgeous, versatile, day-to-night and head-turning earring to capture such an electrifying moment,” said Chilton.
It then moves to “The Romance” chapter, where sparkle meets connection, and finally, “The Look,” which the brand said ends the campaign with “a final, unmistakable impression” of Robinson Pelham.
Throughout the campaign, “Utopia Noir” necklaces, “Arena” pavé rings, “Daystar” pendants, and the “Identity” collection are also seen.
The Icons After Dark holiday campaign debuted in October across Robinson Pelham’s digital and social channels, as well as in-store and online.
The Tsar Star earrings in the Blaze colorway retail for $9,506. The pieces can also be purchased separately, priced at $3,812 for the studs or $6,278 for the drops.
The style is also available in 14-karat yellow or white gold with pink sapphires or diamonds.
The Blaze colorway debuted in October, its pink hue a tribute to Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The piece launched as part of the brand’s breast cancer awareness initiative in tandem with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation in the United States and The Pink Ribbon Foundation in the United Kingdom.
During the month of October, Robinson Pelham donated 10 percent of the proceeds from this style to the Pink Ribbon Foundation.
The Tsar Star earrings in the Blaze colorway are available on the Robinson Pelham website.
