This one-off pair of quirky earrings is made from semi-precious stones, a non-identical pair of hand-cast resin turritella shells and sterling silver. They are designed to complement each other but not exactly match. They can be worn as a pair or as statement individual pieces. One drop below the earwire is 2¾ inches (7cm), the other just under 3 inches (7½ cm). Resin is beautifully light and this pair of individual earrings weigh just 8.91g between them (average 4.46g each).

The original turritella shells were gifted to me from a friend’s collection when I lived in Whitby. The vibrant blue and dark grey shells are teamed with kyanite, lapis lazuli, sodalite, tanzanite and blue tiger’s eye. These gemstones are very much stones for the mind. They can help to reduce workaholic tendencies, improve concentration and focus the mind. They can promote mental clarity bringing self-knowledge, self-awareness and self-expression. You may feel calmer, safer and more centred, which can make you feel more aware of purpose. Heart will connect to mind, yin-yang energy may be balanced and you’ll experience harmony and a deep peace as you resolve any problems objectively, finding the courage to be honest with others.

Your choice of gift box will include the descriptive enclosure (photographed) which tells the new owner of these delightful earrings all about their qualities.
