These earrings are so bright and cheerful, they will be your go-to earrings on winter's dark and dreary days. They feature red Czech glass disk beads with embossed turquoise center and lines which make them look like happy flowers. I paired them with little round Sleeping Beauty turquoise beads and hung them from sterling silver ear wires. They are light and oh so fun to wear!
These earrings will be made to order and may have very slight differences than the photos shown. Size will be the same.
SIZE: These earrings hang about 1 3/8 inches. The glass beads measure 13mm in diameter; the turquoise beads are about 3mm. Each earring weighs about 1 gram.
MATERIALS: Czech Glass, Sleeping Beauty Turquoise beads, Sterling silver
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from various sources): Turquoise is sacred to both Native American and oriental traditions. It is said to help promote honest and clear communication. In traditional thought, Turquoise unites the earth and the sky, bringing together male and female energies. This stone is supposed to be empathetic and balancing. A promoter of self-realization, it assists creative problem-solving and calms the nerves when speaking in public. Turquoise is one of December's birthstones.
