CANTICLE FOR THE FOREST - Moss Agate Green Sterling Silver Handmade Earrings
About:
Moss agate is such a gorgeous, organic looking stone. These handmade, one of a kind earrings are made with flattened tubes of green moss agate and sterling silver. The swirls and bits of "moss" are amazing, looking like real moss is growing in the stones. Sterling silver daisy spacers and 2mm beads frame the moss agate at the top and the bottom of the stones. The main body of the earrings were then hand wire-wrapped onto sterling silver earwires. These earrings are a perfect complement to the CANTICLE FOR THE FOREST necklace.
Agates develop as secondary deposits in hollow rock cavities, called vesicles. Most of the world’s agates developed in ancient volcanic lava starting out as pockets of trapped gases. Later, the gases escaped through cracks that formed as the igneous rock cooled and hardened, leaving hollow cavities. The empty cavities and seams filled with water rich in dissolved and suspended quartz molecules (silica), as well as other mineral impurities. Over time, the silica molecules began to form microcrystals that attached to the sides of the cavity. Layer upon layer of microcrystals formed in the cavity until it was filled. Moss agates have clusters of mineral inclusions that resemble plants, trees, or landscapes. Most moss agate inclusions are comprised of iron or manganese oxide.
Here's the important information for the CANTICLE FOR THE FOREST earrings:
+ Moss agate flattened tubes: app. 18mm x 6mm x 4mm
+ Metal: sterling silver
+ Length: app. 1.75" / 4.4 cm from top of the earwire
