Handmade Aventurine, Peridot, Jasper And Pearl Drop Earrings

Handmade Aventurine, Peridot, Jasper And Pearl Drop Earrings

These earrings are more complex by design and have more silver parts than my simple staples but I love these type of earring too, as all the different beads are hanging independently and therefore dance around all over when worn. They will definitely get you noticed.

I call these my long chain drop style, using seven links of trace chain, I build the earring on this base, attaching beads to the chain with the wrapping technique.

The largest bead on each drop is an aventurine which I have highlighted with a peridot on the same strand. Then hanging at intervals up the chain is a dyed green jasper, a dyed green freshwater cultured pearl and another peridot. The chain then attaches to a ear wire with a spring detail.

All metal parts are sterling silver (925).

The drop measures approximately 46mm in length and the beads measure approximately, aventurine- 13mm, jasper- 6mm, pearl- 5mm and peridot- 4mm.
