Bottega Veneta Cubic ZIrconia Silver Earrings.

New from Bottega Veneta come these Cubic Zirconia and oxydized silver earrings.  Bottega Veneta is particularly fond of using the oxydized silver, as it has an 'antique' look which gives an unusual flavour to the products, it makes them look more like lead than silver, which suits the "less is more" discreet aesthetic of Bottega Veneta perfectly.

The use of cubic zirconia is a bit of a new one however, this often ridiculed stone has for years been the preserve of jewellery network bargain basement type jewellers, who normally sell it as "just like diamond at a fraction of the cost" that sort of association seems odd on a luxury high end product such as one from Bottega.

The stones are quite generous however, and in bright vibrant shades for summer, additionally, he prices are relatively reasonable for Bottega Veneta, at £325 per pair, leaving them an attractive piece of costume jewellery for fun summer day wear.
