The equestrian style of the H Equipe collection
The aesthetic of the H Equipe line draws its inspiration directly from Hermès’ heritage in equestrian sports. The crests and riding jackets worn by show-jumping riders dictate the collection’s strict geometry and colour contrasts. These pre-owned earrings masterfully illustrate this connection. The craftsmanship reveals meticulous work on buffalo horn, a natural organic material in which every variation in brown hue ensures the jewellery’s exclusivity. The central motif features the Parisian House’s initial, framed by wide bands of bright red and opaque pink lacquer. Palladium-plated metal completes this creation with its bold and confident proportions.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The architecture of these pendants is based on the contrast between an imposing visual volume and a structure of remarkable physical lightness. Each 50 mm diameter earring is divided into two distinct geometric discs, linked by a small, delicately articulated dark link. The large lower disc is characterised by clean, symmetrical cut-outs that create the negative space needed to enhance the solid motif. The naturally smooth surface of the buffalo horn is combined with a glossy lacquer applied with absolute precision, without the slightest imperfection in the contours. The fastening system, comprising posts and large palladium-plated metal clasps, ensures a secure fit and a perfectly aligned drape against the face.
Why choose these second-hand earrings
Opting for these second-hand Hermès earrings is an extremely sensible choice for lovers of striking design. This creation makes a major stylistic statement thanks to its generous 50 mm diameter and its rich, saturated colours. The artisanal skill required to carve, polish and lacquer the natural horn to such a high standard explains the enduring appeal of this contemporary line. This designer piece allows you to incorporate a piece with an instantly recognisable and prestigious design, whilst supporting a smart circular economy and gaining direct access to the House’s manufacturing excellence.
