The serpent is one of the most ancient and ubiquitous mythological animals representing rebirth, healing, wisdom, fertility, duality, and infinity. Our serpents are embellished with filigree patterns, emeralds, sapphires, diamonds, and rubies. At a time when women’s and LGBTQ+ rights are actively being threatened, we welcome the serpent as a shield of loving support and resurgence.
These filigree earring jackets are comprised of a serpent head and tail adorned with emerald and blue sapphire and are designed to be worn together.

Where Our Stones Come From
Diamond Origin
To us, ethical diamonds are more than just conflict-free. We work with a fully traceable supply chain, from mine to market. Our diamonds are primarily of recycled, Canadian and Australian origin, lab-grown.
Metal Origin
Responsibly sourced metals are the cornerstone of our commitment to minimizing our environmental footprint. Conscientious craftsmanship begins with Fairmined and Recycled metal.
Gemstone Origin
Gemstone sourcing is where we have the most direct relationships with miners and suppliers and can purchase nearly directly from individuals and cooperatives in ways that support sustainable development. Some of our suppliers provide micro-financing to small-scale mining operations to help them protect and restore the biodiversity of the lands they affect and assist financially with goals that positively impact their communities. Through these relationships, we’re able to provide high-quality, traceable gems while supporting an industry that is steadily moving towards rigorous environmental, labor, and health standards.
Sustainability
Your Footprint
Bario Neal was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The city is still home to our flagship store and workshop, and we’re proud to be part of a thriving art, design, and makers’ community. All of our jewelry is crafted in-house or in collaboration with American makers, which allows us to reduce our environmental footprint and create products with minimal impact.
Environmentalism isn’t a trend at Bario Neal. Material sourcing, packaging, and the longevity of a design are a part of our process — we consider how a material will hold up in daily wear and how easily it can be recycled in fifty years.
