Wire-wrapped Turquoise Earrings

Another project that I did in the last 2 days. Using wire and turquoise, I turned them into a beautiful wire arts. This pair of earrings comes with ear studs. Depending of your preference, I could shape it to 3 different designs as per pictures here:


Here is some notes about benefits of Turquoise:
Turquoise is used as a metaphysical aid in any situation where clear communication is needed and also as an aid to eloquent public speaking. These attributes can also be used to open connections between friends, allowing love to flow whilst enabling true, selfless bonding. Turquoise Stone is recommended to enhance to overall mental state of the user strengthening empathy, positive vibrations, intuition and wisdom leading to greater serenity and self- actualization. Turquoise is said to open all chakras, permitting the attributes of love, completeness and communication to flow through the entire being and increasing spiritual bonding..

What's new?

I've been a bit quiet lately on my blog, however I did a few more things that I added to my shop.
A small sterling silver pendant with purple freshwater pearls, done in freeform wire wrapping style. It's reall too cute :)
Modified version of the original Vita pendant with adding some gorgeous freshwater pearls around the frame, I feel it fills the whole pendant quite nicely now.
Listed a double spiral turquoise chainmail bracelet I made a while ago and never got to list until now. Sterling silver, as usual.
And if you are making greeting cards with stamps, I have a whole bunch of unmounted stamps that I need to destash. Haven't made greeting cards in at least 5 years, so I'm afraid I won't be returning to parchment and to stamping anymore, I'm too much wrapped in making jewelry :)
So you can get the whole batch for only 25 Euros here. I might list some other cardmaking supplies later on, once these stamps are gone.
