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 4.81g (average 2.41g per earring).

Hearts are, of course, a traditional symbol of love. These silver foiled glass lampwork heart beads have been teamed with rose quartz. Often referred to as “the love stone”, rose quartz is the most powerful for dealing with affairs of the heart. It opens the heart chakra to all forms of unconditional love: self-love, family love, platonic love and romantic love. This, in turn, lowers stress levels. Emotionally it can bring gentleness, forgiveness, compassion, kindness, tolerance and can release repressed hurt. It raises one’s self-esteem and sense of self-worth and encourages compassion, patience and peace.

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.
