Vault Gemstone Stud Earrings
Crafted in solid 18k yellow gold with natural gemstones.
Handcrafted in 18k yellow gold with a brushed finish, the Vault Earrings feature natural emerald-cut gemstones secured in bezel settings. Inspired by the geometry of the Bernard James Mirror emblem, the design transforms the brand's signature silhouette into a sculptural frame that celebrates the beauty of each stone.
The Vault collection explores the relationship between structure and gemstone, where the bezel serves as both protection and an integral part of the design. Its substantial gold frame creates a sense of permanence while the brushed finish provides a soft contrast to the emeralds' rich green color and faceted brilliance.
Designed with a low, compact profile, the Vault Earrings balance bold geometry with everyday wearability. Each pair is handcrafted in New York, reflecting Bernard James' commitment to thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship, and enduring materials.
