Faceted TURQUOISE Dew Drop Earrings (DECEMBER BIRTHSTONE) 14K GOLD chains

Loving these petite TURQUOISE dew drop earrings! 

Our December birthstone is TURQUOISE, and once again we have some lovely gemstones to use in our earrings and necklaces!

Each earring is made of three chains in evenly staggered heights, all 14K Gold fill connected together at their tops by their 14K Gold earwires, with 3 faceted Turquoise gemstones suspended at each end- each earring mirrors its mate to make a fantastic pair with 6 Turquoise gemstones. 

Turquoise is perhaps the oldest decorative stone in mankind's history, the Taliswoman of Kings and Queens, Shamans, and Warriors. It is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch. The delicate veining or mottled webbing in cream or brown is inherent to the stone and serves to enhance its character.

The name Turquoise is derived from the French, pierre turquoise, meaning “Turkish stone,” because the trade routes that brought Turquoise to Europe from the mines in central Asia went through Turkey, and Venetian merchants often purchased the stone in Turkish bazaars. 

For thousands of years, Turquoise has spanned all cultures, prized as a symbol of wisdom, nobility and the power of immortality. Among the Ancient Egyptians, Persians and Chinese, Aztecs and Incas of South America, and Native North Americans, Turquoise was sacred in its adornment and for power, luck, and protection. Turquoise strengthens the meridians of the body and the subtle energy fields, enhancing communication between the physical and spiritual worlds. Placed on the Third Eye, it supports intuition and meditation. On the throat chakra, it releases old vows, inhibitions, and allows the soul to express itself once more. 

These Dew Drop earrings measure 3" including the 14K Gold fill ear wires.
