ILEANA MAKRI 18-karat gold, diamond and topaz earrings

“A major factor in jewelry making is collaborating closely with the artisans who craft it, as this connection is crucial for producing exquisite pieces,” says Ileana Makri - all her pieces are handmade in Greece. Cast from 18-karat gold, these earrings feature a round-cut oxidized white topaz placed in a crown setting and studded with diamonds.
