Turquoise Teardrop Wishbone Earrings, Gold-Filled, 1.5"
Pure sky blue. Each smooth turquoise teardrop is wire wrapped by hand at the top in half-round gold-filled wire and hung from an open wishbone ear wire, so the stone swings free and catches the light. Here and there, a little dark matrix runs through the blue, the earth's own signature.
Simple, bright and easy. The pair you put on in the morning and forget to take off.
Handmade in North Boulder
Made by hand in the FILOSOPHY studio in North Boulder, Colorado.
Turquoise Meaning: A Piece of the Sky
Turquoise is one of the oldest protection stones there is. Travelers and wanderers carried it as a piece of the sky they could keep with them, and it's still the stone for the woman who follows her own map, even when the road isn't the easy one.
Wear it when you're heading somewhere new, inside or out. It's a reminder that you've always known the way home to yourself.

Jewelry Care
Take them off before swimming, showering or exercising, and put them on after lotion and perfume. Turquoise is porous, so keep it away from water and chemicals. Wipe the stones and gold-filled metal with a soft, dry cloth and store them dry.
