Turquoise Nugget Half Hoop Earrings in Sterling Silver
A free-form nugget of bright blue turquoise, flecked with golden-brown matrix, hangs from each sterling silver half-round hoop between two little sterling silver beads. Each nugget is its own shape, just as it came from the earth.
At 1.5" long they're easy to wear every single day, and that pop of turquoise makes everything you put on feel a little more like you.
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 have carried it for thousands of years as a piece of the sky they could keep close, and it still belongs to the woman who follows her own map.
Wear them as a little reminder to breathe, look up and trust where you're headed.

How to Wear Them
They go with everything: a white tee and jeans, a sundress, a cozy sweater. Pair them with a turquoise pendant for a matched set, or let them be your one bit of color.
Natural Gemstone Variation
Every turquoise nugget has its own shape, shade and matrix, so your pair will be uniquely yours and the two earrings won't be perfect twins.
About the photos: The photo on this page is AI-created to show the design and colors. Your pair is handmade in our studio, and natural turquoise will vary in shape, color and pattern.
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 sterling silver with a soft, dry cloth, and store them in a dry pouch to slow tarnish.
