THE EARRINGS:
As a seller, I very rarely say "The pictures don't do them justice" but with these particular earrings,, you just can't imagine the color these have & get the full picture, that is, until you have them in hand & you'll see why Bisbee’s color stands apart from the rest of our USA turquoise..
Good Bisbee turquoise has always been one of the #1 choice's for the turquoise connoisseur & for good reason.. Known for it's mesmerizing & extremely vivid blue color,this turquoise has some amazing matrix patterns & ranks high as far as 'hardness' in turquoise, which means it doesn't need to stabilized in order for the lapidarian to cut it. Not only are the blues intense in color,but some cuts have it signature chocolate matrix,as well as pyrite matrix & quartz.These are not 'over the top' in size, but speak volumes in color & quality, where the quality dominates the quantity.
They are designed in a 2 tier drop cluster & are made with uncalibrated cuts that are more 'free form' cut rather than precisely shaped from one to the other. So with that said, the focus was more on using all Bisbee cuts, with the same intensity, same matrix patterns, rather that the stones matching perfectly in size & shape. However, they are as close to being in the same shape & size as much as possible. Please go through all photos before purchasing please.
If having each stone not matching in size & shape tends to bother you,I do have other earrings that are precisely matched that you can check out throughout my website!!. (None though with this kind of Bisbee)

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 as much as I can. I do however, find this particular blue harder to photograph since I don't want them to come across too vibrant, nor too dull. Each monitor varies and also plays a role in how vibrant or less vibrant as something appears. If you need more photos,please let me know!
To give you close up photos,pictures 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 and 12 ) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements above.
