Tibetan Earrings – Faraway Waters

Tibetan Earrings – Faraway Waters

Bold blocks of turquoise blue, coral-orange and deep blue give the Tibetan Earrings – Faraway Waters a wonderfully colourful, collected look. Each earring combines a large turquoise-coloured geometric section with a warm oval centre and a smaller deep-blue round detail, all surrounded by ornate metalwork and curled accents.

The combination is striking without relying on one single focal point – your eye moves from one colour and shape to the next. Browse more distinctive designs in our Tibetan Earrings collection.

Faraway Waters Tibetan Earrings – Three Colours, Three Shapes

What makes this pair especially interesting is the way the design stacks different shapes as well as colours. A small blue circle sits above a warm oval centre, followed by the broad turquoise-coloured geometric section below.

Curled metal spirals and tiny rounded details fill the spaces around them, creating an ornate frame that feels deliberately irregular and full of character. The turquoise tone dominates the lower half, while the orange and dark blue stop the design from becoming too cool or monochromatic.

Why Turquoise & Coral Became Such a Recognisable Pairing

Turquoise-blue and coral-red or orange materials have a long visual association with jewellery from Tibet and surrounding Himalayan regions. Their contrast is part of the appeal: cool blue-green tones become even more vivid beside warm reds and oranges.

Historically, colourful jewellery could be much more than simple decoration, and materials such as turquoise and coral were highly valued in Tibetan personal ornament. Modern Tibetan-style jewellery continues to draw strongly on that unmistakable combination of saturated colour and elaborate metalwork.

Did You Know? Turquoise Travelled Across Enormous Distances

Turquoise has been prized in many parts of Asia for thousands of years, but suitable deposits are not found everywhere it became fashionable. That meant turquoise could travel along long-distance trade networks before eventually being set into jewellery and decorative objects far from where it originated.

Tibet’s position within historic networks connecting regions of Central, South and East Asia helped create a material culture filled with objects, stones and influences that had travelled considerable distances.

It is a fitting bit of history for a pair called Faraway Waters: blue stones and blue-coloured ornament have quite literally crossed landscapes, mountains and trading routes for centuries.

Why Geometric Shapes Change the Feel of Jewellery

The large turquoise-coloured lower section is not perfectly round, which gives these earrings a very different personality from designs built entirely from circles and ovals. Its angular outline adds weight and structure to the bottom of the drop.

Above it, the softer oval and circular forms create contrast. Mixing several shapes within one earring makes the design feel layered and assembled rather than repetitive – particularly effective with the surrounding curls and small metal details.

How to Style Faraway Waters

These earrings already contain a strong colour palette, so simple clothing gives them plenty of room to stand out. Black, cream, white, denim and earthy browns all make easy backdrops for the turquoise and orange tones.

For a more maximalist look, pair them with layered bangles, textured necklaces or other colourful accessories. Explore our wider Earrings collection for more unusual styles.
