Magical earrings: Opaline (vintage pearls from Japan)

My earrings are a little bit of magic brought back to life right here in Montreal, Quebec.

At Atelier Saturne, nothing is left to chance: each pair of earrings is thoughtfully designed, assembled, and infused with intention in my little studio in Montreal’s Plateau neighborhood.

It’s my way of creating unique, meaningful jewelry.

Every piece of my jewelry incorporates upcycled elements.

All the beads I use are vintage, found in thrift stores here in Montreal or on trips I take specifically to inspire my creations.

To date, Atelier Saturne has taken me to several places to create unique collections: Salem, New Orleans, Serbia, Romania, Mexico, Peru, the south of France and Japan.

Every place directly influences the jewelry I create.

All the pearlized beads used in my creations since June 2025 come from Japan. Any chain segments on my earrings are leftover pieces from chains used for my necklaces.

If you’re curious to see behind the scenes, videos will be available on my YouTube channel starting in May 2026.

And then there’s that little something extra:

Every Atelier Saturne earring is an invitation to reveal the magical side that lies within you.

What makes my earrings truly special:

A magical design.

Every pair has that little “je ne sais quoi” that makes it unique.

Most of my earrings are made up of beads and charms, often with a slight asymmetry that gives them their character.

The charms come from a variety of places:

– They may be vintage, and are very often one of a kind

– They may come from deadstock (past collections or pieces with imperfections (always noted when this is the case)

– Sometimes there are also a few new charms, when I can’t find what I’m looking for or to meet specific requests. Feel free to message me if you have any questions 🤍

If you don’t see a design in the online shop, it simply means it has sold. I never leave sold-out product listings online. (One-of-a-kind designs featuring vintage charms posted during drops often sell quickly and disappear right away.)

There are always flat-lay and on-model photos to help you picture how they’ll look.

If any are missing, it’s a mistake—feel free to contact me.

Everyday comfort

The earring backs are made of stainless steel (PVD Physical Vapor Deposition on stainless steel) for the gold-tone finish—a high-quality finish that stands the test of time and is in a league of its own compared with gold plating, perfect even for sensitive ears.

No green marks, no surprises—just durable, beautiful earrings that last.

And yes, the gold-tone finish on the backs stays put, even if your skin is acidic. Tested and approved by over 1,000 happy customers 🤍

One-of-a-kind pieces, mixed and assembled by hand in Montreal, in our beautiful Quebec.

I make every pair myself in my magical studio. The designs come straight from my imagination.

No two pairs are exactly alike. And that’s what I love: knowing that everyone leaves with a piece of jewelry that truly reflects who they are.
