Ana Khouri Delphine Earrings

Designer Ana Khouri recently expressed her dedication to sustainability through an ‘Earth Manifesto,’ where she says the Earth must be “nurtured, protected and passed on from generation to generation.” She has incorporated these sentiments into her designs and recently released Delphine earrings using 18K Fairmined gold. She was even awarded the Eco-Age Brandmark that honors sustainable excellence. The Delphine earrings come in all gold and all diamond versions, but we love the diamond, sapphire and tourmaline setting combination. $17,022, anakhouri.com
