These earrings feature copper discs dangling from shimmery Tigers Eye beads. Each disc has a cougar's face, which I sawed with my jeweler's saw. The copper is antiqued and then polished, giving the metal a soft dark patina. The ear wires are Niobium, which is considered one of the least allergenic metals.
SIZE: These earrings hang about 1 7/8 inches. The discs are 1 inch in diameter. The beads are 8mm.
MATERIALS: Copper, Tigers Eye, Niobium
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from various sources): Tiger’s Eye is supposed to promote clear thinking, courage and confidence.
