Add a little Autumn warmth to your outfit with these andalusite leaf earrings!
Andalusite is a stone in lovely shades of brown with a hint of pink. The mixture of rose gold, sterling silver, and andalusite makes a perfect accessory for all those soft and neutral Autumn textiles!
I have securely wire wrapped tiny gemstones, suspending them in a leaf-shaped silver frame.
This style of wire wrapping is called a basket weave and is a delicate and intricate technique.
All of our ear wires are made from scratch in our studio using 20 gauge wire. They are formed, lightly hammered for strength, and polished for shine!
Size: about 1 5/8" long including the ear wire.
Materials: sterling silver, 14k rose gold fill, and andalusite.
WHAT IS GOLD FILLED?
14kt gold filled is a layer of solid 14kt gold (gold alloy) bonded to a jeweler's brass core.
Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plating - Gold-filled jewelry has 100x more gold alloy than gold plated and because that layer is so much thicker, it means gold-filled jewelry lasts longer and stands up to wear and tear better than gold plated.
