THIS LISTING IS FOR A PAIR OF CLIP-ON EARRINGS!
OVALS 1⅛” x ⅝” - Matching pendant may be available for purchase on the pendant page.
These stones read like landscape. Two perfectly matched picture jasper ovals, each measuring 1⅛” x ⅝”, carry the warm golden amber and pale cream banding that makes this material one of the most visually compelling jaspers in the lapidary world bold horizontal sweeps of color that suggest mesa tops and canyon walls, the particular light of late afternoon on sedimentary stone. No two picture jaspers are alike. These two are as close as they come.
Each stone sits in a full hand-twisted rope border bezel in oxidized .925 sterling silver the classic Southwest framing that lets the stone do its work while grounding the piece in the tradition of this place. The clip-on backs are secure and comfortable, the kind of finding that wears through a full day without the discomfort that lesser hardware delivers. For those who do not have pierced ears, these earrings offer no compromise the stone, the silver, the craft are entirely unchanged. At 1⅛” they wear with the quiet authority of material that has been carrying the colors of the earth for millions of years.
