Diving Moorish Idol

A steep, sloping snout and the long, whip-like dorsal extension make the Moorish idol instantly recognizable to ocean lovers. Mike Warner angled this brass cutout into a downward plunge, letting the dramatic outline of the trailing fin carry the design rather than cluttering it with surface detail. Offered in gold-tone, these scarce earrings rely on precise photo-etching to keep the silhouette sharp and lightweight.
