The Dara N°1 lets the star hang. The Dara N°2 makes the star the whole story.
A five-point star sits flush against the lobe — not polished smooth, but deliberately textured: the surface is pressed and folded like paper caught mid-crumple, giving the metal a tactile, organic quality that no perfectly flat stud could achieve. In silver, the texture reads soft and sculptural, almost like a star that's been worn by time. In 18K gold vermeil, the same surface transforms — the folds catch warm light differently at every angle, giving the piece a richness that elevates it far beyond a standard star stud.
The Texture Is the Point
Most jewelry aims for flawless surface. The Dara N°2 is built around intentional imperfection — a surface that looks handmade because it is. The crumpled star technique requires the same precision as any highly polished piece, but in reverse: the goal is controlled organic movement, not uniformity. Every pair comes out slightly different. Every pair is correct.
Part of the Dara Story
Where the Starla Collection built its star language around geometry — four points, precise angles, zircon centers — the Dara Collection builds its language around material and texture. Same five-point star symbol, completely different design vocabulary. The N°2 is the piece in the collection that most clearly states that difference: a star you recognize immediately, rendered in a way you've never quite seen before.
Two Colors, Two Characters
The Silver version has a quieter presence — the texture reads as subtle from across the room, then reveals itself up close. The Gold version in 18K gold vermeil over 925 sterling silver is more declarative: the warm tone amplifies every fold and ridge, making the texture the first thing people notice. Both versions reward closer inspection.
Built for All-Day Wear
Fully waterproof, tarnish-resistant, and hypoallergenic in both colorways. The butterfly back closure keeps them secure through a full day without slipping.
