Federico Jimenez-Super Chic! Gem Quality Vivid Blue Kingman/Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Cluster- Sterling Drop Earrings-59.5 Grams(2 Oz.)
THE EARRINGS:
Very cosmopolitan, these super striking earrings are made with a turquoise color that is so magnetic, you can't help but be mesmerized!
Magnificently designed with nothing but some of the finest turquoise, these are made in a cluster setting with a drop dead gorgeous center cut of Kingman Turquoise that has a very vivid blue color & equals in color to the vibrant color Sleeping Beauty turquoise. The 4 mm round Sleeping Beauty cabochons act as a halo for both the Kingman & the vibrant orange spiny oyster tops. Nothing compares to the color blue that the now closed, Sleeping Beauty mine produces & by adding them to the design, adds this incredible vibrancy to the earring! All the stones have a sleek high polish, which tells you that the turquoise is 'harder', which equates to quality when we're talking turquoise.
Because of the generous amounts of materials, these do have some weight, so please know what weight your ears can handle before you purchase! If you would want these to be converted to clips, I can offer this service for an additional fee. There will be at least a 2 week turn around.
A NOTE:**In this business, you pay for what you get. And just like with any other gemstone, there are 'grades' with some being a lower grade which are less expensive, while others are high grade and are more expensive.. Turquoise is the same, with the cost being higher for 'natural turquoise' that have a "high/excellent" grade. I always say "look at the price" & that should give you some clue as to how good something is, especially in jewelry**

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. Each monitor varies and also plays a role in how vibrant or less vibrant as something appears. If you need more photos, in different areas of lighting, 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 & 10) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements above.
