Hatsumi’s earrings
In our special supplement, we pair characters from fiction with truly imaginative – but entirely real – jewellery. Here, Hatsumi, from “Norwegian Wood”, wears earrings by Cartier
“Folding her arms and closing her eyes, Hatsumi sank back into the corner of the seat. Her small gold earrings caught the light as the taxi swayed. Her midnight-blue dress seemed to have been made to match the darkness of the interior. Every now and then her lightly made-up, beautifully formed lips would quiver slightly as though she had caught herself on the verge of talking to herself.”
Norwegian Wood
