Lapis Lazuli Earrings, Turquoise Earrings, Stud Earrings, Rough Gemstones, September December Birthstone, Sterling Silver Gold Plated, Gift

Lapis Lazuli and Turquoise Rough Gemstone Stud Earrings made out of 18 karat Gold plated Sterling Silver. 100% Handmade Jewellery. LAPIS LAZULI: The sweet sounding, melodic name of this gem is composed of 'Lapis', the Latin word for stone, and 'Azula', which comes from the Arabic and means 'blue'. Historians believe the link between humans and lapis lazuli stretches back more than 6,500 years. The gem was treasured by the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, Greece, and Rome. They valued it for its vivid, exquisite color, and prized it as much as they prized other blue gems like sapphire and turquoise. Lapis Lazuli is the alternative birthstone for the month of September, together with Sapphires. Lapis Lazuli is considered to be the stone for the seventh and ninth wedding anniversaries. TURQUOISE: Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is one of the first gemstones to ever be mined and has long been prized for its intense colour. Turquoise is a widely available stone, however it is rarely found in its pure, natural form. It has a rich history with many interesting properties. Turquoise is thought to be a protective stone that has been used for amulets for centuries - an amulet is a small piece of jewellery thought to give protection against evil, danger and disease. It is said to dispel negative energy and provide protection against pollutants in the environment. The birthstone of December is also thought to enhance intuition, to assist creative problem solving and calming the nerves when speaking in public. Physically, Turquoise is said to be an excellent stone for exhaustion, depression and panic attacks. THE EARRINGS: We love Turquoise here at GemMade Jewellery and we keep a large stock of stones in diferent colour and quality. We cut our own stones at our workshop so everytime the ideas to creating new jewellery are endless. Most times we let the natural form of the stone guide us. This one is a beautiful Sterling Silver, 100% handmade pair of stud earrings with rough Turquoise and Lapis Lazuli. The rough oval shaped gemstones are set in 18 karat Gold Plated Sterling Silver Bezels. The 100% handmade set of earrings is inspired by the beauty and shape of natural Gemstones. The vivid blue of Turquoise is matched nicely with the dark blue of Lapis Lazuli and both colours are complimented perfectly by the gold of the bezels. It is the reason we almost always choose to gold plate our silver jewelry.
