Tonal greens will grab the eye, especially a stone that is so deeply saturated as chrome diopside. Each faceted teardrop is topped with a micro faceted rondelle of peridot. Deeper and warmer green than emerald, with much more depth of color, this striking gemstone is mined only in Russia for a short portion of the year due to the extreme temperatures of the climate. It is paired with expertly checkerboard faceted peridot briolettes that are clear and bright. Each stone is wrapped in sterling silver wire that has been oxidized and buffed to a deep gray. Oxidized sterling silver chain connects the hammered sterling silver bows to my handmade sterling silver earwires to complete the look. Sure to please the adventurous August baby or the lover of green, they are lightweight and comfortable enough to become her favorite pair!
