14kt GoldFill/Apatite Ocean Linear Earrings - Short
- Low stock - 2 items left
- Inventory on the way
Inspired by the sea and winter dreams of sunnier days the Ocean waves collection features shades of blue and turquoise gemstones and shiny gold.
Like sea glitter bouncing off the waves the collection seeks to sparkle and shine and draws on sculptural forms stacked high in statement styles of earrings, pendants and bracelets.
These earrings are a beautiful, delicate style perfect for layering for that curated ear look. The “backdrop” or “ear jacket” trend continues to be a key theme in this collection and is seen here with the focal piece falling from behind the ear-lobe.
Made from luxe, high-quality materials including 14kt Goldfill metal sourced from suppliers who have certified all gold used is conflict free and ethically sourced and certified Apatite gemstones.
Why use GoldFill?
Goldfill is such a wonderful material. It gives the look of 14kt Gold at a fraction of the price. Also known as "rolled Gold" it is a layer of precious gold metal pressure bonded to another metal usually another yellow metal like brass. Not to be confused with its cheaper cousin gold plating, GoldFill contains far more of the precious metal, is tarnish resistant and EU regulated. It is currently more valuable than Sterling Silver and even Vermeil (sterling silver with Gold plating). It is a wonderful material, try it, we think you'll be impressed! The goldfill in these earrings has come from a supplier whose supply chain has been vetted. The gold used is certified conflict free and responsibly sourced.
Why use ethically Approved gemstones?
The gemstone trade is historically a deeply unethical trade with many illegal practices happening along the supply chain. In addition the mining industry also has a heavy carbon footprint and many problematic sourcing issues. By working with our trusted supplier who is endorsed by established ethical bodies we can offer gemstones that have come from a trusted source. The gemstones used in this product have been sourced in collaboration with the American Gemstone Association (AGTA). The AGTA is a trusted source for colored gemstones and the authority on ethical, mine to market mentality practices within the jewelry trade for over 40 years.

Gift Packaging:
All of our pieces should be sold in a beautiful Scribble & Stone jewellery box with gold embossed logo. Our branding and gift packaging have been designed by an award winning Graphic Design/Packaging company with sustainability in mind.
We use fsc certified sustainable paper for our boxes and bags. Our gift boxes and cotton pouches are designed to be longlife rather than single use. As such we have invested considerable resources in designing a premium quality jewellery box which can be reused and kept for many years to come.
Inside each box the jewellery will be placed in a beautiful eco friendly cotton pouch or attached to a FSC certified textured jewellery card with gold ribbon (depending on suitability). The gift box will then be wrapped in pearlised tissue paper and placed inside a pink FSC certified luxury gift bag with ribbon handles ready for gifting.
Alternatively at check-out you can choose minimal packaging by putting it in the notes. This option will include a Scribble & Stone long life jewellery box with a cotton pouch or a textured jewellery card with gold ribbon.
The organic cotton pouches are marked eco friendly. This ECO label is used for products that meet strict requirements re toxic chemicals and damage to the environment or eco-system. The cotton is organic which means less damage to the environment and farmers and makers from chemicals. Our partner supplier sends quality controllers regularly to visit the factories they work with to ensure good work conditions for the workers there.
FSC® stands for Forest Stewardship Council® and is an international non-profit labelling system for wood and paper.
The FSC mark guarantees that all materials come from an FSC forest, where no more wood is cut down than the forest can reproduce. This means better protection of the animal- and plant life, and all foresters have proper training, safety equipment and a decent wage.
