Dumortierite Arched Silver Earrings

A lovely unique pair of Dumortierite teardrop earrings on arched recycled sterling silver ear fittings. Dumortierite is a new stone to me but I thought how pretty these look, the way the blue bleeds into the white, very pretty! I wanted an earring fitting that showed off the lovely stone and didn’t detract from it so I made these elegant arched ear wires in recycled sterling silver. All of these pairs of gemstones are one off pairs!

With dumortierite being named after French palaeontologist Eugène Dumortier, the correct way of saying the name is thought to be dumor~ti~air~rite. This seems logical considering the surname of this person would have been pronounced dumor~ti-air.

When used for its healing properties dumortierite is said to be beneficial for patience and slowing down aggravated and irritable energies. It can also be used to calm excitable behaviour and stubbornness.
Dumortierite stimulates communication between the body’s various systems and can help with the expression of spiritual ideas and the comprehension of hidden meanings.
It helps to resolve opposing points of view and when placed on the throat chakra can encourage open communication and the desire to share advice.

The drop length of the earrings is 2.3cm (just over 3/4 inch) and the length from the top pf the hook is 4cm (1 1/2 inch) and the width of the stones are 1cm (just under 1/2 inch).

ALL of my items are GIFT wrapped!
