Sterling Silver Lapis & Golden Hills Turquoise Teardrop Dangles

Vibrant and striking the dangles are expertly handcrafted in solid Sterling silver.  To create a stunning color contrast, deep, celestial blue Lapis Lazuli is paired with rare, prized periwinkle-hued authentic Golden Hills Turquoise from Kazakhstan.  The teardrops are 8.2x30mm, with luminous rick blue color with golden patterns.  The Turquoise is pear-shaped and encased in textured Sterling bezels.  A graceful design and balanced connections promote gentle sway with movement.  

Generously proportioned yet slender and lightweight, these earrings offer the perfect balance of bold Southerwestern charm with contemporary elegance.  With a 2.5 inch total drop and 1/2 inch maximum width, these are statement earrings that are not overwhelming.  They transition easily from day into nighttime style.  Paired with earth tones, crisp whites or denim they manifest effortless, high-end, Bohemian flair.  Stunning for evening with a black, navy or white sleek dress.  An updo or swept-back hairstyle permits optimal showcasing.

Origin story:  Golden Hills Turquoise is mined in a remote area of Kazakhstan in the Central Asian steppes.  Only recently discovered and introduced to the jewelry world, it is prized and priced for its rich periwinkle or robin's egg blue colors and rarity.  There is only one isolated mine in rugged terrain, rendering access and availability limited.  Chemically, it is some of the purest, most durable natural turquoise available.  

These are not just earrings but a fully hand-crafted, wearable piece of geological history with striking beauty and contemporary elegance.  Make this one-of-a-kind earring pair an unexpected gift for someone special or grab them for yourself.
