Lake Superior Agate Earring, Matched Set in Solid Sterling Silver

This matched set of Lake Superior agate earrings are made from a banded water level agate with quartz that we found near our home in Northern Wisconsin. I see brown, white and clear in these stones but from any distance they look more grey to me. Each stone has a small section of clear quartz within them. I cut these in tiny domed teardrops and set them in solid sterling silver. The backs of the earrings are made with my hand forged and formed recycled sterling silver. I added an abstract texture to the backs of the earrings. The agates are about 11 mm tall. The ear wires are solid argentium sterling silver. Argentium is a premium option for ear wires due to it's tarnish resistance and ease of cleaning. These would make a great gift!

Our stones are mirror polished and so there will be reflections in the pictures. We take pictures in direct bright light that simulates what your stone will look like in direct sunlight. Stones look very different in low or artificial light. If it's dark when you receive them you can use the flashlight feature on your smart phone to see what they will look like in daylight. If you are new to semi precious stones please understand that these stones are natural and were found or dug from the earth. These are not faceted altered or manmade stones you see in stores. Natural stones (especially agates) may have features that would be considered flaws in a faceted stone or manufactured stone. Natural stones can have internal fractures, natural holes or geode areas. If there are features we as professional lapidary artists feel may detract from a stone we do our best to describe them in the listing description and show them in the pictures.We charge based on size and quality of the stone as well as market factors. We don’t dabble in the art of stone cutting. Brain is a full time lapidary artist so if you buy from us you are buying a high quality stone made by an experienced professional artist. We are a legitimate small business licensed as an LLC in Wisconsin. Our business mission is to create happiness through our art.
