I created these Canadian jade earrings in forest green genuine jade gemstones and 20 gauge sterling silver wire. These are natural Canadian jade gemstones from the province of British Columbia in a very limited amount of a flat organic nugget cut. These stones are older stock and neither the rough jade or this shape is available any longer. The shades of green in the jade are varied, with leaf green, forest green and olive in many stones. The jade is softly polished and the irregular profile adds a distinct design aspect to the contemporary shape. Tiny silver coated hematite stones complete the design.
The earrings are designed for regular piercings and 1 1/2” (38mm) long. They will be shipped in a splurge gift tin. Each pair of earrings will be unique because of the natural variation in each stone.
