sonoran gold turquoise + silver + 14k goldfill hoops
sonoran gold turquoise + silver + 14k goldfill hoops
Measurements: Approximately 2 5/8" long from the top of the stone to the base of the hoop. The hoop has a width of 1 5/8". Ear posts are made of 20 gauge sterling wire.
Add a little splash of color to your daily hoop earrings! These feature rich green turquoise from northern Mexico known as Sonoran Gold. I purchase these stones from the family who cuts them. The stud back stays securely in place with a simple eyelet closure crafted right into the hoop. The hoop and bezel are made out of 14K Goldfill with recycled silver backplate and ear post.
Goldfill is a layer of 14K gold bonded to a core of a base metal, such as copper and brass. Goldfill is much more durable than gold plating. It is susceptible to tarnish, but can be easily cleaned with a polishing cloth. One polishing cloth is included with your order.
* These are intentionally shaped more oval than round, since I have found that they look and hang the best when shaped this way :) *
Earrings come in a hand-sewn drawstring gift bag made out of repurposed fabrics or an eco-friendly gift box.
