Tiny marcasite gemstones and textured crystal quartz make these 2.5" drop earrings a stylish contrast. The arabesque drops feature small glittering marcasite inset within sterling silver, and these pair with coated druzy quartz coins with oxidized sterling silver circles and graceful sterling silver ear wires. In jewelry, marcasite is synonymous with the iron sulfide mineral pyrite, which can be deep gold in color or nearly black like the small gemstones here. Druzy quartz refers to quartz covered with small crystals, giving the gemstone a glittering crystalline appearance. These druzy quartz coins have been color coated with an AB purple-bronze finish. Together with the tapered dark silver open circles, the gemstones make for an extravagant accessory.

Cost: $87.00 USD
