Inspired by the grandeur and mystery of antiquity, Alex Soldier’s Symbolica Carnelian & Black Spinel Earrings transform ancient symbolism into dramatic wearable art. Bold, sculptural, and entirely one of a kind, these statement drop earrings embody the enigmatic beauty, intricate craftsmanship, and distinctive artistry of the Symbolica collection.
At the heart of each earring lies a dramatic hand-cut carnelian, captivating with its fiery color, warmth, and luminous natural depth. Masterfully positioned beneath the center stones, Alex Soldier’s signature hand-carved galleries reveal intricate textures reminiscent of ancient symbols and artifacts. Viewed through the carnelian, these hidden sculptural details create a mesmerizing illusion of depth and mystery, as though fragments of an ancient story have been captured within each jewel.
Shimmering black spinel encircles the carnelian centers, intensifying their rich color while creating dramatic contrast against the textured oxidized sterling silver. The interplay of warm carnelian, deep black spinel, darkened metal, and intricate hand-carved details gives these gemstone earrings remarkable dimension and visual intensity.
With an elegant 55 mm drop, the elongated silhouette creates graceful movement while making a powerful statement. Every element, from the individually hand-cut gemstones to the sculptural galleries and meticulously textured metalwork, reflects Alex Soldier’s signature approach to jewelry as sculpture, bringing together ancient inspiration and contemporary artistry.
More than carnelian and black spinel earrings, Symbolica is a celebration of mystery, individuality, history, and exceptional craftsmanship, a one-of-a-kind collector’s piece designed for those who seek jewelry with presence, meaning, and soul.
One of a kind. Handcrafted with love in New York City using responsibly sourced materials.
