The world's best handmade treasures
Backed by our 100% Happiness GuaranteeGuatemala's Jimenez Family crafts these stunning hoop earrings using jade obtained from the foothills of the Sierra de las Minas in Zacapa. Jade has long been associated with the concept of immortality, as its hardness is close to that of a diamond. Here, polished light green jade forms smooth hoops and are finished with sterling silver accents and saddleback catches. The artisans call the earrings Conexion, which translates to "connection" in English.
You can find our jade hoop earrings 'Conexion in Light Green' by Jimenez Family in jewelry categories such as Gemstone Earrings, Jade Earrings, Sterling Silver Earrings and Hoop Earrings. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
