IMPORTANT NOTE: I have sold out of the Nevada Blue turquoise nuggets; your earrings will be made with matching nuggets (both in color, shape and size) from the Kingman mine in Arizona instead!

I couldn't resist these gorgeous Nevada turquoise nuggets, they are the most amazing blue. I bought them direct from the Nevada Turquoise Company, and the stones used in these earrings come from the Nevada Blue mine. When I compared them next to the more famous (and more expensive) Sleeping Beauty turquoise, the color was equally intense!
Natural, Genuine, Nevada Turquoise! Most of these nuggets have little veins of matrix, which is grey to black in color, and sometimes a bit metallic.
The hoops are shaped and hand-hammered, and hand polished. Then I wire-wrap the small free form turquoise nuggets to the hoops, and the end result is anything but ordinary! Note that the turquoise is wrapped to the earring, so they are asymmetrical when viewed from the side as shown in the 3rd photo.
Coordinating necklace as shown in the 4th photo is available here:
OPTIONS:
• The hoops used are about 1.5" in diameter, however I can make these with 1.25" hoops if preferred - just request it in the notes to seller at checkout!
• If you would like this style but on a smaller 3/4" or 1" hoop, let me know!
• If Gold-Filled is selected, (or if no selection can be made, i.e. from mobile devices), the default is 14k Yellow Gold-Filled. Please leave a note to seller at checkout if you would like them in rose or white instead.
• Note that the White gold-filled is not as bright of a white as the sterling, it is a warm white, somewhere between the color of sterling and yellow gold. Also note that it stays much softer than the other options.
• The hoops are made with 18ga wire; smaller 19 or 20ga is also available upon request, but is thinner and more delicate both in looks and strength.
• A satin finish instead of smooth is available upon request.
• Copper is also available, for $35 - contact me for a custom listing!
• Upgraded gift Wrap, expedited shipping, shipping insurance, and more are available for a small charge - contact me for a listing!
