The Dark Side: Jewels in Black Rhodium

Sutra earrings

Eight styles with a flair for the dramatic

Take even the most ordinary, basic jewelry design—it’s instantly elevated by adding black rhodium. The design takes on an air of mystery, enveloped with a bold new attitude that beckons to you. Black rhodium is totally transformative: Compare two of the exact same jewelry designs—one in, say, yellow gold, the other, black—and it’s amazing what a difference black rhodium makes. Certainly it depends on the customer, what finish they’d prefer (it’s true that the dark, dramatic look isn’t for everyone), but you can bet those who prefer it really love it. Here are eight of my recent favorites.
