Opalite is the kind of earring that makes you stand out. A gold-painted scallop shell from Nantucket Harbor, finished with a delicate freshwater pearl drop. She's bold enough to be noticed and refined enough to feel effortless. The shell catches light the way the shore does in the middle of summer. The pearl softens her just enough. She's dressed up and relaxed at the same time, which is exactly how summer should feel.
Handmade in limited quantities — when she's gone, she's gone. Hand-painted shell with gold and freshwater pearl charm. Dangle stud. Nickel-free and lead-free.
Sara's note: Opalite started with a woman I spotted wearing something similar. She was distinguished, effortlessly cool, and the kind of woman who doesn't try too hard. I thought: I could make those with real shells. I had these freshwater pearl charms I'd been saving for a necklace, but they were too small for what I had in mind. Turns out they were exactly the right size for this; it was meant to be.
