Description

These drop earrings are made using a 5x8mm Larvikite rondelle, 6mm Larvikite round, a 3mm sterling silver stardust bead and a trio of 3mm, AAA grade, micro-faceted Amazonite beads. The mottled grey Larvikite beads show occasional flashes of silvery-blue in the light, known as the schiller effect, and are very similar in appearance to Labradorite. The faceted Amazonite beads have a beautiful, shimmering blue-green hue, and the micro-faceting gives them a lovely sparkle. The sterling silver stardust beads add sparkle and shine. The beads are threaded onto sterling silver headpins and hung from sterling silver ear-wires that are stamped '925'. These pretty earrings measure approximately 1.25 inches (3cm). Your earrings will be wrapped in tissue and presented in a small organza gift bag. Price includes delivery within the UK.

Read the Folksy Returns Policy.

The ancient Egyptians prized Amazonite, and placed jewellery and carved ornaments made of Amazonite in the tombs of the dead. It was one of the stones used to inlay the golden mask of Tutankhamun. It is regarded as a stone of hope, balancing emotions and soothing stress. I like the subtle understatement of larvikite, how it seems at first glance to be a mottled stone of paler and darker grey until light reveals hints of a silvery sheen and flash of blue. It is named after the region of Larvik in Norway, and was named Norways national stone in 2008.
