I created these earrings first by making the 3/4" (2cm) silver rings and soldering them closed. They are then hammered flat and buffed to a satin finish. I then added the amethyst, which is a faceted, rectangle stone approximately 5 x 7mm, a 4mm round rainbow moonstone and a 5mm faceted rainbow moonstone. The ear wires are made from 21 gauge sterling silver wire. These earrings are very lightweight and easy to wear! I have many other stone options available, so contact me with any requests.
