Globemallow & Turquoise earrings
These turquoise stones are a deep olive green with golden brown matrix. I personally cut the stones to be perfectly matched pairs, with mirroring matrix patterns to each other. The stones are set in a hand fabricated sterling and fine silver setting. The stones hang from solid sterling silver cast globemallow seed pods. Casting the seed pods is a delicate, tedious task in itself- each is created from a real, very fragile pod from a one time mold, making each casting unique. Then each pod is meticulously matched with its most similar to create a pair. The post of these earrings is sterling silver, as are the larger sized push backs. The larger surface of the push back disperses the weight of the earring and makes them more comfortable to wear. They are signed “EKW” and marked “925” for sterling silver. These markings are hand engraved. Each earring weighs 9 grams and is 45mm in length.
