The Earth's Layers as Memory, Depth, and Time.
The Horizontes earring is born from the observation of the soil layers—structures that silently hold the planet's deep history. Each soil horizon reveals a distinct dimension: texture, density, color, age, life. Just as in geology, surfaces and depths are marked by different times, pressures, and movements, forming a living body in constant transformation.
In Minas Gerais, the soil horizons are open books: they hold rare minerals, ancestral roots, groundwater, and the visible trace of the plateaus and mountains that shape the territory. The earring translates this set of layers into continuous vertical lines, evoking the geological column that sustains the Minas Gerais landscape.
Its elongated and elegant forms express the verticality of the Earth—that which deepens, accumulates, and rises with time. The design brings the delicacy of gold in motion, but preserves the structural strength that characterizes the Earth element in the AMA’Y collection: stability, permanence, and ancestry.
The Horizontes earring is, therefore, a celebration of the depth of the soil, of mineral memory, and of the poetry contained in the strata that sustain life. A jewel that connects past and present, surface and interior, lightness and resistance—like the Earth itself that inspires it.
