The capital of China has been variously named: Nanjing, Peking and Beijing. After Cassandra's stay at the Broughton Castle in Oxfordshire, where hand-painted butterflies, flitted and fluttered across the beautiful 18th century Chinese wallpaper, Cassandra was inspired to sketch the first designs. So, Cassandra named these differently sized pieces after the varying names of the capital: Peking, Nanjing and Beijing. From the journey to China.
Peking 18ct white gold earstuds with pave open wings and inserts set with 8 diamonds 006cts. and with hooks for pendants. Each earring measures approximately 8x10mm.
Craftmanship and sourcing
Designed by Cassandra
Cassandra herself designs all her jewels and works closely with her stone cutters and craftsmen throughout the process from design through to creation including on her bespoke projects.
Gemologist
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
Crafted to perfection
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
