Anthony Nak Labradorite and Thai Sapphire Earrings

Anthony Camargo and Nak Armstrong launched Anthony Nak in 1999. They met coincidentally in the early 90’s while both living in NYC. Armstrong traveled to NY from Texas to pursue a career in fashion, and Camargo came to New York via Miami to continue his career designing furniture. Shortly after meeting, they realized that they both shared the same passion for jewelry design and fashion. Since 2003, the designers continue to earn prestigious honors such as the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) award. Celebrities Reese Witherspoon, Angelina Jolie, Leann Rimes, Mandy Moore, Kelly Clarkson, Rosario Dawson, and Calista Flockhart have been known to wear their collections.

The Labradorite stone was discovered in 1770 on the Labrador Peninsula in Canada. Besides Canada, this stone is also found in Norway. The gem is known to be a power stone allowing clear visualization when meditating.  Sapphire is derived from the Greek word sappheiros meaning blue. It is a variety of the minerals corundum and aluminum oxide.  Sapphire is said to provide spiritual enlightenment and inner peace.

The Labradorite and Thai Sapphire Earrings are perfect for formal events. The subtle labradorite stone and the three dusty blue sapphire drops are encased by gold chain links.  They measure 1” in total length including the ear wires. These earrings are rich and elegant pieces that provide a seamless sophisticated look. Buy through Twist for $1,100.
