Keke Palmer & TerrAquatic Jewels
See how Keke Palmer's red-carpet style inspires our TerrAquatic collection. Discover aquatic gemstones, chalcedony and diamonds, and embrace the allure of sea-inspired jewelry.
When actress and singer Keke Palmer steps onto the red carpet, she does so with infectious confidence. Her fashion choices feel both playful and refined, often highlighting unexpected color and texture. At the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards, Palmer made waves with her jewelry. According to JCK’s coverage of the event, she wore 18K white gold cluster earrings set with 12.2 carats of diamonds, three bangles in white gold each set with over 12 carats of diamonds, another bangle adorned with sapphires and diamonds, and rings that combined titanium, chalcedony and floating diamonds. Among her rings was a titanium design featuring a 9.55-carat cabochon-cut chalcedony surrounded by diamonds. The cool blue chalcedony, reminiscent of tranquil water, punctuated her look with a hint of sea-inspired elegance.
Palmer’s jewellery choices mirror the ethos behind Stephen Dweck’s TerrAquatic collection. This line draws inspiration from shorelines and tide pools, pairing sea-hued gemstones with sculptural metalwork. Chalcedony, for example, is a microcrystalline quartz known for its translucent, milky blue colour. It is often associated with tranquility and communication; its watery hue evokes the serenity of the ocean. By wearing chalcedony alongside diamonds and sapphires, Palmer exemplified how aquatic colours can elevate a glamorous ensemble. Her layered bangles and statement rings also speak to the current trend of mixing textures and stacking pieces for maximum impact.
To recreate Palmer’s aquatic sparkle, start by anchoring your look with a single sea- oloured gemstone. In TerrAquatic pieces, you will find chalcedony alongside aquamarine, blue topaz and iridescent mother of pearl. Pair a bold chalcedony cocktail ring with delicate diamond bands to echo Palmer’s mix of statement and refinement. For an everyday interpretation, consider small chalcedony studs or a pendant; the stone’s soft blue complements denim and neutral knits. To capture the layered bangle look, stack slender bangles in different metals—sterling silver, 18K gold and oxidised bronze—and add one cuff set with aquamarine or moonstone. The interplay of metal textures and watery gems creates movement reminiscent of light on water.
TerrAquatic’s aesthetic is not limited to blue stones. The collection incorporates coral-like carvings, wave-inspired textures and organic silhouettes that mimic sea flora and fauna. Choose a necklace with cascading chains that mimic seaweed or earrings shaped like droplets of water. When styling these pieces, lean into fabrics and colours that evoke the coast: linen, white cotton, seafoam green and sandy beige. Even in winter, such touches remind us of summer days by the water.
Palmer’s red-carpet moment also highlights the power of jewellery to tell a story. Each piece she wore—each bangle, ring and earring—contributed to a narrative of glamour grounded in nature. Our TerrAquatic collection invites you to craft your own narrative. Whether you choose a bold statement cuff reminiscent of coral reefs or a delicate ring inspired by rippling waves, you are choosing jewelry that connects you to the earth’s waters and to the fearless style of women like Keke Palmer.
Explore the collection to find pieces that capture the fluidity and sparkle of the sea. Let chalcedony’s watery blue and diamonds’ icy brilliance transport you. In a world that often feels rushed, wearing jewellery inspired by the ocean can be a daily reminder to breathe, flow and shine.
