Tapadero Earrings

The Tapadero Earrings will always be some of my favorites! This set is made with a pair of Mantis stones, the jury is still out on exactly what this material is. Some of the material mined from the Mantis vein is Turquoise, and some of it is Variscite. By the shades of green in this set, I'd definitely lean more toward Variscite. 

These measure just under 3.25" long by just over 1" at their widest. Each earring weighs 18 grams. This style comes with my extra large earring backs making for a much more comfortable wear throughout the day! Believe me, they work wonders! 

Stamped sterling and signed with my maker's mark.
