'Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that-Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that"- Martin Luther King Jr.
THE EARRINGS:
Long and super exotic, these traditionally made Oaxaca earrings are designed with the undeniable look of Mexico, but have been been taken up a few notch's by adding the elegance and highly collectible beauty of Mediterranean red Coral!
Impeccably made by experienced hands, these are made in a 4 tier lengthy style, where the 1st tier has a domed hand stamped flower top that displays a cab of coral in the center, which then is connected to the hand made Palomas Enamoradas on the 2nd tier..Palomas are signature to Mexico and have special meaning and especially regarding everlasting eternal love..This is one reason why these are considered the perfect 'wedding' earring..But don't let the word "marriage" stop you from considering them! These can make any day special!! Connecting the Palomas to the crescent shaped bottom tier, is a coral cab wire connection and it's this large bottom tier, that shows off all the impeccable twisted wire filigree work, as well as acting as the anchor for all the coral dangles!
Whether you want them for your wedding or to pair them with all your Coral jewelry or maybe just to be able to wear them with all your Mexican clothing, any of these will do!!
***PLEASE READ!***
This style is made with other gemstones (Turquoise,Amethyst,etc.) which are less expensive, but anyone whose seriously involved in this business knows how much the price of Coral has climbed to & this is what makes these more costly. The days of buying coral at a good price, well you might say, those days are long gone!
Coral is now on the "Rare" list & no longer can it be fished, nor brought in the USA. (These reasons are reflected in the price) and in the last few years when it was at about $250 a gram,to now being over $1000 a gram for the premium qualities. Everyday the price goes up & the less availability, the higher the price will go! Coral has become a collectible material for these reasons mentioned.

SIGNATURE REQUIREMENT:
Because of the price,these will have a mandatory signature confirmation requirement & will come insured..

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try my hardest to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. But please realize that all monitors are different, so the materials can look brighter (or duller) from one computer to the next.
In order to give you close up photos so I can provide you with all the detail,the item can tend to make the item look much more larger & everything is more magnified than in actuality. So to get an accurate idea of how big these are,please either check them out being worn to get a rough idea (photo 2) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements..
