Brand Spotlight: Dean Davidson

One of the most popular search terms for Meghan Markle’s fashion is her jewelry, and it comes as no surprise. People love the delicate, intricate, and interesting pieces Meghan chooses to accessorize an outfit. One of the most-seen jewelry pieces, a simple pair of rainbow moonstone stud earrings, come all the way from Canada. Meghan’s Midi Knockout stud earrings from Dean Davidson have become a “MirrorMeg” staple.

The Knockout stud earring is part of Dean Davidson’s signature collection, which features timeless designs with custom cut gemstones. Meghan opts for the neutral and mystical rainbow moonstone, but the earrings also come in onyx, labradorite, and topaz. Each gemstone is hand-cut and hand-polished, and the earrings make “a statement in their own right.” Elegant and understated – we know exactly why Meghan chose them.

But who is Dean Davidson? He is, indeed, a real person. Davidson studied at the Alberta College of Art and Design and worked alongside Paul Hardy to develop a capsule collection before launching his own eponymous line. Davidson was inspired by a trip to South Africa, and eventually was led to India where he developed his collection.

Dean Davidson’s pieces are crafted in Jaipur, India, in a traditional family-owned workshop. A father and grandfather team work as master gem cutters, expertly crafting each gemstone. The team spans three generations, with decades of experience. The artisan workshop has even been known to create custom pieces for India’s royal family – Meghan isn’t the only royal who loves these pieces!

While Meghan loves her signature Midi Knockout studs, we could see her choosing any of the Signature Collection pieces, Dean Davidson’s fantastic statement earrings, or the stackable rings.
