These gemstone earrings are made from semi-precious stones, glass hearts and sterling silver. The drop below the earwire is around 3cm (about 1¼ inches). They weigh just 4g (average 2g per earring).

Hearts are, of course, a traditional symbol of love. These silver foiled glass lampwork heart beads have been teamed with light blue chalcedony. Chalcedony brings strong energy to the throat chakra and is known as “The Speaker’s Stone.” It is a useful gem to have in your pocket if you are required to speak in public but are fearful of doing so. It helps the wearer to choose their words carefully and to speak with calm and reason since it encourages reflection and meditation on a subject. You’ll feel prepared for action but able to hold back hurtful words. This is a peace-making stone which is able to absorb and dissipate negative energy, removing sadness and hostility, thus encouraging friendliness.

The earrings come in a gift bag that includes the descriptive enclosure (photographed) which tells the new owner of this one-off jewellery all about its qualities. A complementary polishing cloth is also included.
