I created these modern cobalt blue lapis lazuli earrings by stacking hand cut 1/4” (6mm) cubes of lapis stones on my hammered sterling silver earwires. The natural deep blue colour of the stone is highlighted by pyrite inclusions and organic patterns. These earrings have a great pop of colour that can edge into almost navy and are perfect with a pair of jeans. The variation in the stones enhances the organic and modern feel of these earrings. Shown on the model in 1 1/2” length.
These earrings are available in your choice of sterling silver or hypoallergenic niobium earwires. Niobium is often recommended for people with sensitivities to metal and is a dark grey colour, similar to oxidized sterling silver.
The earrings are just under 1 1/2" (36mm) long and will be shipped in a splurge gift tin. Please expect natural variation in these stones and in each pair of handmade earrings. This earring design is also available in different stones and colours as a custom order. Examples are shown of some of the stones available. Please contact me for a custom pair!
