face earrings

A cascade of aqua, tangerine, peach and espresso is transformed into earrings almost five inches long. By skilled artisans from Mexico's Huichol Center for Cultural Survival and Traditional Arts, these bold waterfall earrings make a dramatic fashion statement. The lovely seed beads and faceted globes dance on sterling silver hooks.

Falling below beaded clusters of lapis lazuli, cultured pearl, and glass, two faceted gemstones of white and blue lapis lazuli total 27 carats. Thai artisan Nareerat creates these beautiful earrings, which swing from hooks of sterling silver.

India's Neetu Barathi finds in rainbow moonstones her main inspiration to design a set of two sterling silver dangle earrings. After working side by side with local artisans, the final result is these charming accessories with an ethereal aura: one with faceted aventurine stones and the other with faceted chalcedony jewels, each design totaling twelve carats. On top of that, the gems symbolize leadership, goodwill and harmony, adding a special meaning to the set.
