About this Product
For these earrings, I've carefully hand-wrapped lovely faceted Sleeping Beauty turquoise stones, sterling silver spacers, and tiny lapis lazuli gemstones with sterling silver wire and hung them on my own hand-formed Argentium (tarnish resistant) sterling silver ear wires. The colors are characteristic of the stones used: the turquoise is the wonderful robin's egg blue from the Sleeping Beauty mines and the lapis is striking cobalt blue.
The earrings display a soothing and serene variation of blues that can be easily worn both casually and formally
Perfect color for winter wear
Wonderful gift idea for the holiday season

Considering a birthstone gift?- Both turquoise and lapis are traditional gemstones for December

Meet the Maker
After spending my days working with computer programs, I love to spend time working materials with my hands in my studio in upstate New York. I've been hand-crafting jewelry for about 15 years, working primarily with gemstones, pearls, and precious metals. I enjoy the mechanics of putting beautiful components together - and sometimes being surprised with the results.
Most of my creations are one-of-a-kind - I'm happiest making new designs and hope you're happy knowing you have a unique piece of jewelry!
