Black Magic Autumn Waterfall Earrings with Garnet and Druzy
Elegant and perfect for the spooky season! These earrings feature deep red faceted garnets and sparkling black druzy. I paired the stones with adorable mother-of-pearl ghosts. All set in sterling with a mix of prongs and bezel sets. Drusy, or...druzy, is a naturally occuring crystalization on the surface of the stone. The black drusy in these earrings are naturally colored agates with a sparkling crystal surface. Long and lovely, these earrings are also very lightweight. Double jump rings ensure stability and that the stones face forward. Textured back because the back should be beautiful too! Approximately 2 1/2 inches from the top of the ear wire to the bottom of the earring. All sterling, including ear wires are sterling. My maker's mark is on the back.
Small batch. All sterling. Beautiful stones. One-of-a-kind. Hand built in the heart of the West.
+About druzy:
Druzy is a unique creation of nature. It consists of a host rock covered with sparkling micro-crystals, called druzy. The sparkling druze (or druse) crystals encrust the surface of the host stone and take millions of years to grow.
+About Garnet: Garnet, birthstone for January, dates as far back as 3800 b.c. and was used by the Egyptians for beads and carvings. The name comes from the Latin word for pomegranate, "granatus." It's found in a range of colors from deep red, to pink, to orange and green.
+ Details:
+ All pieces are slowly and carefully handmade, in my studio in Sheridan, Wyoming. Because of this, each piece is unique and may contain the slight imperfections that you would expect with a handcrafted item. Perfectly imperfect!
+Each piece is marked with my maker's mark. Earrings are sometimes difficult to mark because of the size and may or may not be marked (please see photos.)
+ As with all handmade jewelry, please be mindful to take care of it. It should not be worn in the shower, while cleaning, during strenuous activities such as sports, or in the water.
+ Sun, heat, lotions and chemicals can affect stones negatively. Clean silver (not stones) with a gentle polishing cloth, especially for jewelry (Sunshine polishing cloth is recommended and included with your purchase).
