These earrings feature dragonflies embossed on periwinkle blue Czech Glass disks. The dragonflies are coppery bronze colored, as is the edge of the round beads. I added small antiqued copper beads on top and bottom of each dragonfly disk and a dark teal Apatite bead above. The ear wires are Niobium. Niobium is considered one of the least allergenic metals.
SIZE: These earrings hang about 1 1/2 inches. The dragonfly disks measure 16mm (just over 5/8 inches) across. Each earring weighs about 2 grams.
MATERIALS: Czech Glass, Apatite, Copper, Niobium
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from various sources): Apatite draws off negativity and increases motivation. It enhances creativity and the intellect and clears confusion and frustration.
