I love these wonderful natural turquoise slice beads, and wanted a design that would show them off to their fullest! The result is these modern thin hoop earrings. These turquoise slices are a consistent size, and have fairly uniform gorgeous blue color, with varying amounts of veining.

The 2nd and 3rd photos are for size reference; note that the 2nd photo is a bit overexposed so the color is less accurate than the others.

OPTIONS:
• The default metal is 14k yellow gold-filled as shown in the photos - if you want sterling or rose gold-filled, just request it!
• The hoops used are about 3/4" in diameter, and I use 20ga wire. Slightly thinner 21ga is available upon request, or, slightly thicker 19ga (copper only available in 20ga).
• A satin finish or a hammered finish instead of smooth for the hoops is available upon request.

Note that the turquoise is wrapped to the earring, so they are asymmetrical when viewed from the side as shown in the 3rd photo.

Coordinating necklace as shown in the 4th photo is available here:

OPTIONS:
• The hoops used are about 1.5" in diameter, however I can make these with 1.25" hoops if preferred - just request it in the notes to seller at checkout!
• If you would like this style but on a smaller 3/4" or 1" hoop, let me know!
• If Gold-Filled is selected, (or if no selection can be made, i.e. from mobile devices), the default is 14k Yellow Gold-Filled. Please leave a note to seller at checkout if you would like them in rose or white instead.
• Note that the White gold-filled is not as bright of a white as the sterling, it is a warm white, somewhere between the color of sterling and yellow gold. Also note that it stays much softer than the other options.
• The hoops are made with 18ga wire; smaller 19 or 20ga is also available upon request, but is thinner and more delicate both in looks and strength.
• A satin finish instead of smooth is available upon request.
• Copper is also available, for $35 - contact me for a custom listing!
• Upgraded gift Wrap, expedited shipping, shipping insurance, and more are available for a small charge - contact me for a listing!
