Meira T is a brand with an immediately identifiable signature look. With a focus on daintiness, geometricity, and asymmetry, Meira T jewelry reflects the free spirit of modern bohemianism, where designs are both carefree and elegant. This elevated boho look lends itself to playfulness, whether that be playing with gemstone combinations or mixed metal pairings. Meira T’s approach to designing two-tone jewelry is to take the spirit of fun, breeziness, and simple sophistication that characterizes the brand’s aesthetic, and let it run wild as contrasting precious metals work together to create a timeless, effortlessly feminine piece of jewelry. The woman-owned brand pairs its affinity for unusual gemstones with a deliciously contrasting combination of rubicund 14k rose gold and icy 14k white gold in the Meira T Two Tone Gold Opal Diamond Necklace by Meira T. The centerpiece of this two-tone treasure is a stunning .47 ct opal, which presents with opulent shades of deep blue and velvety green that radiate outwards. Surrounding this magnificent opal—whose slightly irregular shape is not only preserved but accommodated by the hardware of the necklace—is a diamond halo set in beautiful 14k rose gold; this charmingly asymmetrical diamond halo elevates the opal necklace while its irregular shape stays true to Meira T’s affinity for asymmetry. Additionally, all along the cool 14k white gold chain appear two other Meira T signatures: slightly off-kilter bezel-set diamond charms and pavé diamond squares. With the majority of the necklace, including the chain and diamond charms, being set in frosty 14k white gold, the placement of the warm tones of the 14k rose gold halo at the visual focal point of the piece sets up a beautiful contrast at the heart of this two-tone necklace. Use it as the starting point for your look, especially if you want to bring white gold, platinum, or sterling silver jewelry together with dreamy rose gold pieces. Trust your o-pals at Deutsch; this is one opal necklace you don’t want to miss out on!

When it comes to drama and opulence, there’s really no one like Jye’s International. Whether it is pairing flawless rubies, sapphires, or emeralds with diamond halo settings, showing off impressive gold-engraving techniques, or dazzling with diamond hoop earrings, Jye’s International is a brand dedicated to wowing its audience. Just as colored gemstone jewelry is combing back, as Renaissance-inspired pieces are hitting runways, and as super feminine botanical and bug-inspired jewelry is showing up on red carpets, Jye’s is at the center of it all, anticipating the next trend. Designers of all sorts have looked to the past for inspiration, picking up on two-tone trends of the ‘90s in both jeans and jewelry, while the resurgence of y2k fashion has popularized butterfly, bumblebee, and dragonfly motifs. Jye’s International combines both of these trends in the perfect pair of summer earrings: the Jye's Pave Butterfly Dangle Earrings. A two-tone menagerie for butterflies, these dangle earrings are set in 18k white gold and feature 2.27 ctw of round diamond accents in both pavé and prong settings. The 18k white gold loop of the earrings forms a cage of sorts around two butterflies, one with 18k yellow gold wings and an 18k white gold body, and the other with 18k white gold wings and an 18k yellow gold body. The dainty butterflies both rest on curls of 18k yellow gold vines, which flutter out into round diamond dewdrops. These two-tone earrings are romantic, feminine, and totally on-trend right now. Now isn’t that a butterfly effect you can be happy about?
