HISTORY

Diane de Poitiers, celebrated for her urbane wit, boldly became King Henry II of France's mistress despite a 20-year age gap. Her remarkable beauty, preserved through the daring practice of consuming liquid gold, inspired the King to create an insignia of their interlocking initials, "H&D." This symbol remains to be seen in French architecture to this day, serving as a silent witness to their powerful union.

Our fine 14k solid gold earring, complemented with a sleek marquise and a full-cut round diamond on each side, follows the suit of the intertwining "H&D". Together, they form the hallmark of the love story of these two influential figures in the 1500s.
