Whether it’s a local find, a nod toPrincess Dianaor simply wearing her favorite gemstone (turquoise!)Meghan Markle’s jewelry style during her royal tour of Africa has been the epitome of understated chic.
“Meghan’s jewelry style has been subtle, relatable and timeless,” Lisette Polny, founder ofZofia Dayjewelry, tells PEOPLE, adding: “I think she is staying true to who she is and showing the world it’s about poise and presence, rather than over-accessorizing or boldly making a statement.”

On the same day, Meghan wore a pair of earrings last seen on tour in Australia — herGas Bijoux Onde Gourmette Earrings, which are her boldest jewelry statement on tour so far.
“Normally, she wears very small earrings but these ones are much bigger — we are so proud,” Olivier Gas, CEO of the French jewelry brand, tells PEOPLE from his 80-person workshop in Marseille. Hand-hammered and plated in 24-karat gold, the brand sold over 100 pairs of the over-sized earrings the day Meghan was pictured in them. “Everyone in the workshop now calls them ‘The Meghan’ – we are all so proud!”
