Eboshi double ended cufflinks in silver set with facetted blue topaz. Inspired by a Japanese cap or ' Eboshi'. From the Journey to Japan.
The top of each cufflink measures approximately 11x7mm.
Eboshi
The 'eboshi' hat dates back to Heian period of Japan and the high dome of my Eboshi pendant echoes this. In my Eboshi ring, a cluster of jewelled 'hats' swing to and fro on the triple band of the design.
Blue Topaz
Topaz is an aluminium fluoro-hydroxyl-silicate that occurs in large crystals, mostly in Brazil. Glowing with the gift of healing, a blue topaz (the birthstone for November) is said to help your mind and body feel restored, a symbol of friendship, love, honesty, and fidelity. While a golden yellow topaz, permeated with healing warmth and life like the dazzling sun, will rejuvenate both your mind and body. Highly protective, the magic set within these stones is believed to make the wearer invisible to danger.
