Temple of the Sun Blessing earrings gold

The Blessing earrings feature a series of cross-brushed, lentil-shaped discs suspended from polished huggie hoops. The mati -or evil eye- motif is carved into the top and bottom discs, a subtle symbol of protection.

Crafted from 18k gold vermeil and detailed with London blue topaz, the design balances texture, form, and meaning.

Dimensions: 2mm diameter with 4.2cm earring drop

Blue Topaz is believed to ease communication, encouraging heartfelt expression. Its serene and soothing energy is thought to boost confidence and establish boundaries rooted in love. Blue Topaz has traditionally been associated with friendship and the Ancient Romans believed it could facilitate reconciliation.

Temple of the Sun uses only recycled sterling silver 925 as the base metal for their vermeil gold and silver jewelry. Vermeil jewellery is made by laying a layer of 18K gold over a sterling silver base, making it high quality and durable, with a thickness of at least 2.5 microns. This thickness makes it more resistant to tarnishing and fading than plated gold jewellery (which has a minimum thickness of 0.5 microns).

Jewellery care:
To maintain the lustre of your 18K gold vermeil jewellery, rinse in cold water and gently pat dry with a soft 100% lint-free cotton or microfibre cloth. Avoid drying with tissue or paper towels as this will scratch the gold.

Remove gemstone jewellery before engaging in activities that may cause damage and avoid wearing with clothes that have loose threads or abrasive textures, to prevent snagging. Gemstone jewellery can be gently scrubbed with a soft-bristled or baby-sized toothbrush coated in warm, soapy water to dislodge any dirt.
