Feminine and sophisticated, these drop earrings carry the memory of wind through branches and the stillness beneath towering trees. These tourmaline gems glow with a cool, crystalline clarity — like light filtering through fern fronds after rain. Set in warm gold that frames without overpowering, they carry the essence of growth and renewal. A gentle anchor to the forest for those who find beauty in stillness and strength in subtlety.
There are two metal choices:

• Silver + Gold: Solid sterling silver stone seat. Solid 14k yellow gold earwires, prongs, and bails.
Tourmaline was first identified in 19th-century Sri Lanka, where its name came from the word turamali, meaning colored gemstone, for its wide variety of colors. The green tourmaline specifically earned the nickname “Brazilian emerald,” since a 16th-century conquistador in Brazil mistook a dusty green tourmaline for an emerald — a confusion that lasted for centuries. It is believed to enhance awareness, love, strength, and compassion.
Tourmaline is one of the birthstones for October and marks the 8th anniversary.
