Piece of the Week: Armoura’s ‘Cloud’ Earrings
They celebrate the beauty in both calm and stormy days.
This weather, huh?
At some point in recent years, weather transitioned from being the go-to benign topic of conversation to a more heated discussion, literally.
With temperatures soaring to record highs in the Pacific Northwest as of late, Californians and Oregonians always on the alert during fire season, and hurricane season in the South and East getting longer each year, summer weather isn’t always ideal for a picnic.
But this holiday weekend, Americans will make the most of time off, no matter the forecast.
These “Piece of the Week” earrings from Irish fine jewelry brand Armoura emphasize the awe in all the weather Mother Nature produces.
The “Cloud Earrings” are crafted in 14-karat white gold with mother-of-pearl, diamonds, and multicolor sapphires, depicting partly sunny and stormy days.
We’ll hope for more of the former this 4th of July.
They sell for $5,499 at Armoura.com.
