One of the oldest gemstones in human history, smoky quartz was revered by the Druids of Scotland as a stone of power and known in the Highlands as cairngorm, becoming a defining feature of traditional Highland dress from the seventeenth century — set into brooches, sword handles and kilt pins.
These studs present the stone’s warm cognac tones in a refined 9ct gold claw setting. Subtle, sophisticated, and rooted in a rich cultural tradition.
