Green Oval Chrysocolla, Gem Cabochon, Drop Earrings, Sterling Silver, Handmade Statement Dangle Earrings

Some designs are quiet, but this one has a presence. The A-frame sweeps outward from a small textured circle at the top, two curved silver bars narrowing past small spheres to an oval chrysocolla cabochon in a blue-green so deep it reads almost like still water. It's the kind of earring that gets noticed across a room and examined up close.

Hallmarked Blue Piranha and .925. Earrings measure 2 inches (5.1 cm) long from the top of the ear wire, and 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide. Weight is 13.5 grams. Set on sterling silver ear wires.

A lever back option is available, please see the last photo and note your preference at checkout.

Your purchase arrives gift boxed, presented in a soft pouch with a story card.

Good for: a gift for the woman who buys art and wears jewelry with the same eye. The connisseur whose taste runs toward the architectural and the bold. Self-purchase for the woman who wears her confidence on her sleeve, or on her ears.

About Chrysocolla: 

Chrysocolla is a copper-bearing mineral that forms in the oxidized zones of copper deposits, often alongside turquoise, malachite, and azurite. It gets its color from iron and shares the blue-green range with turquoise, though the two are distinct minerals. It takes a high polish and shows a wider range of color than most turquoise. Chrysocolla is softer than turquoise, and benefits from careful handling.
