The earrings Madeleine Swann wears in Spectre do their work quietly, and that is the intelligence of them. Two hexagonal drops of rhodium-plated sterling silver, set with Swarovski Zirconia, and a dress to show them off. The David Deyong Spectre earrings are an easy piece to give or to own: restrained, clearly made, and still on sale from the maker.
In the film
Swann, played by Léa Seydoux, wears them in two of her outfits. The first is with the green Ghost Salma dress at dinner with Daniel Craig’s Bond in the train’s dining car in Morocco. The second is with the Lover Venus dress in the scenes at Oberhauser’s lair. The model is the one David Deyong sells today; see the wider Spectre collection for the rest of her wardrobe.
The details of the David Deyong Spectre earrings
The hexagon. A single geometric drop, cut with straight edges rather than the usual teardrop curve. It reads as deliberate from across a table, but never as ornate.
17mm. That is the size the maker lists. It is long enough to be seen when the hair is up and short enough to stay clear of a collar or a scarf.
A pavé setting. Pavé means small stones set closely together across a surface. The maker says the setting heightens the brilliance of the centre stone, which is the reason to choose it over a plain stud.
Swarovski Zirconia. It is a made stone, not a diamond, and it is described as such. That honesty is part of the appeal: a bright stone that does not pretend to be anything else.
Rhodium-plated sterling silver. The metal is Sterling Silver 925. The rhodium plating gives it a bright, cool white finish that sits with the stones rather than against them.
Wearing it now
These are as likely to be bought as a gift as for oneself, which is a perfectly good reason. They suit a plain neckline and hair worn up, where there is nothing to compete with them. Dark green, as in the film, suits them best; black or navy would also work. They are right for a dinner, a wedding or a long evening on a train.
We would wear them alone, with no necklace. The maker sells a matching pendant and a bracelet in the same hexagon style. We would leave both, since the earrings are enough.
Care. Put them on after perfume and hairspray, wipe them with a soft dry cloth, and store them dry and apart from other jewellery. Rhodium plating lasts best when treated gently.
Buying. We would buy direct from David Deyong. The listing states 28-day returns. International orders may attract import duties, which the maker notes are set by local customs authorities and are not included in its price.
