Droplets

A pair of moonstone beautiful briolette / drop & dangle earrings.
Sturdy 925 sterling silver leverback hooks, and two genuine moonstone drops with a blue/rainbow flash. These earrings will hang very secure because of the closed leverback earhooks.

Moonstone is such a beautiful stone, it looks transparant/white like a mountain crystal, but when the stone is moving around a blue glow/flash appears. It really has a magical feel to it and I love working with this stone.
A lot of lovely myths, lore and stories are tied to moonstone, because of the colors that can so magically be hidden inside it.
In many cultures, moonstone is strongly associated with love. It is a highly prized gift for lovers.
The ancient Romans associated moonstone with the moon and speculated that the gem was formed from drops of moonlight.
Moonstone is associated with all goddesses, but especially the moon goddesses. In Europe, moonstone is considered to be the birthstone for June, although in the United States it shares that distinction with alexandrite and pearl.
Moonstone is an accepted gem for the 13th wedding anniversary.


☆ Earring sizes: 2,5 x 1 cm (in inches this is: 0.98 inch x 0.39 inch)
☆ The briolettes are 9 mm (0.35 inch)

Additional information

Materials:

* All components used in this shop are always sterling silver (925) and genuine gemstones.

* Because I use natural stones, the colors and shapes might be the slightest bit different from what you see on the images, but I try my best to always find beautiful stones that are like the ones shown, as much as is possible.

-------
Sustainable and plastic-free packaging:

* In this shop, I try to keep sustainability and eco-friendly packaging in mind.
I pack all jewelry plastic-free, and use sustainable linen jewelry bags instead of plastic jewelry boxes. I try to keep the amount of packaging materials to a minimal. To make sure I am doing my part.

* When you mark your order as a gift, or order a luxury type of jewelry, I do add a box in which I will place the linen jewelry bag. The jewelry boxes are made out of 80% recycled material, and also eco-friendly. When you do not mark it as a gift, you receive the linen jewelry bag only.

Shipping:



Some items travel amazing distances, all across the globe. It is important to keep in mind that this can sometimes take time. Especially during special times of the year like Christmas, or global events like covid for example. If you need something to arrive really quick, and are on the other side of the planet, it is wise or try to find a shop that is near you.
That way you make sure it will arrive in time.
When you do decide to order here, I will of course do everything I can to ship it as quickly as possible.

If you wish to add shipping insurance and tracking, pm me for information about the additional costs.

Links and goodies:

Did you know that I am also an artist? If you feel curious you can ask me about it.
I often add postcards with my work on it as a goodie/free gift! I do love adding goodies and surprises, and sometimes even add a free extra set of jewelry from my other shop! I always make sure the goodies that I add are useful, and can be given as a gift. And not something you would throw away like business cards for example.
