The Celeste Earrings are a small, precise thing — a triangular white topaz, claw-set in 9k gold, suspended from a matching lever back.
The stone is a trillion-cut white topaz: a compact equilateral triangle with facets that catch light cleanly from every angle. The claw setting holds it with minimal gold, letting the stone read clearly against the ear. The lever back sits snug and secure, the whole earring understated in scale but considered in every detail.
Clear, composed, worn with ease.
White topaz, trillion cut, 5mm
9k gold claw setting
9k gold lever back, 13 x 8mm
Total hanging length 22mm
ABOUT the MAKER
Charlotte Penman Jewellery
Charlotte Penman's jewellery draws on the natural world, 20th-century design icons, and the visual language of ancient adornment. Working in New Zealand with sterling silver, solid gold, and carefully sourced gemstones, she makes pieces that carry weight — not just in materials, but in reference and intention. Her designs range from sculptural rings set with natural stones through to fine gold necklaces and drop earrings — each one considered, each one with a clear point of view. The serpent, the sacred heart, the ginkgo leaf: motifs chosen for what they carry, worn for what they mean to the person wearing them. Pieces designed to be kept.
