Body and setting for each earring is fabricated of mill-rolled sterling silver sheet and drawn round wire for the rope twist framing of the smooth bezel. Silver was smelted for the graduated rain drops of silver in the frame border top and bottom.
Blue green turquoise stones were sliced from the same nugget to create mirror image geometric cabochons--a rarity ! The golden brown matrix, flecks of light blue green and preserved quartz crystal, in this Nevada material, add to their exceptional specimen quality and beauty !
The silver posts on the back and large comfort clutches are a bonus that make these beauties so easy to wear !
