I created these unique turquoise earrings in anodized niobium wire in a gorgeous blue colour that ranges from teal to turquoise with a tiny hint of purple in a few spots. I shaped and hammered the 20 gauge wire to a fun swirl pattern at the front, balanced by simple lines in the rest of the earring. These turquoise earrings are created with hypoallergenic niobium wire, with the colour added to the wire by me through an anodizing process. Artisan yet simple, these earrings are contemporary and comfortable to wear. Niobium is 20% lighter than sterling silver and is often recommended for people that are sensitive to metals.
These earrings are designed for regular piercings and measure about 1 1/2" long. They will be shipped in a splurge gift tin and each pair will be one of a kind.
