Magical high-grade Verde Valley turquoise stones with three hammered circles of sterling silver resembling ripples of water.
Earrings measure approximately 2" in length from top of stone to bottom of hoop. They are just over 1.5" in width.
These earrings are quite substantial and would be loved best by someone who wear's slightly heavier dangle earrings.

ABOUT THE MATERIALS
Specific materials used in this item will be listed above. All materials used are solid materials and are nickel free. There is not plated material in my work. Sterling silver is often labeled as .925 silver. This means that 7.5% copper has been added to the silver to make it stronger and more suitable for regular wear. Most pieces contain a maker's mark along with the .925 stamp, where possible. All pieces are comprised of sterling silver and the bezels are fine silver (.999%)
JEWELRY CARE
To properly care for your one-of-a-kind piece, take care while wearing as natural stones can be delicate. To prolong the life of your piece (which was handcrafted as an heirloom-quality piece), I suggest you remove it while swimming, rock climbing, cliff jumping, sky diving or whatever other crazy and rigorous adventure you may find yourself on!
The best way to clean your jewelry is to use a clean, soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently remove fingerprints, dirt, residue, and oils. I prefer the . Avoid using any harsh chemicals or jewelry cleaners as these can damage the surface of the stone or remove the patina on your piece. When not in use, store your piece in a cool, dry place. Pro Tip: put your sterling silver pieces in a bag with Silica Gel packets to prevent tarnishing.
