The ever-changing colors of the ocean come to life in these handcrafted abalone earrings. Long, graceful teardrops shimmer with brilliant shades of turquoise, emerald green, blue, violet, and pink, creating a beautiful display of natural iridescence.

Each abalone doublet features a layer of genuine abalone shell topped with clear quartz, enhancing the shell's remarkable depth and color. I have saddle set each teardrop in hand-fabricated, oxidized sterling silver, creating a striking contrast between the darkened metal and the luminous shell.

Sterling silver leverback ear wires provide a secure closure, allowing these elegant, elongated earrings to dangle and catch the light with every movement.
