Solid 9 Karat Yellow Gold and Morganite 'Solo' Hook Earrings. These lush minimalist drop earrings combine a delightful pastel-green emerald sphere with a solid 9 karat yellow gold twisted ear hook. The 8mm round spheres of natural emerald gently dangle on their 9 karat yellow gold earhooks with twisted detailing. Carefree pieces to wear year-round. Fun fact: Emerald is the birthstone for May or a 55th anniversary. Each sphere is hand-selected for colour and quality in our Dublin studio and paired with our handmade twisted earwires in solid 9-karat yellow gold. Gemmology: Although the shades may vary, emeralds are always green. Emeralds get their colour from tiny amounts of chromium and iron impurities. Most emeralds have internal imperfections called inclusions. The tiny flaws add to the character of the emerald and because they often look like leaves and vines, they are called "jardin" the French for garden. Lightweight and comfortable to wear these super versatile emerald earrings will easily go from casual daywear to elegant evening wear. They're sure to fit perfectly with any outfit in your wardrobe. Metaphysical properties: Emerald is known as the stone of successful love. It is said to bring loyalty and domestic bliss. Enhancing unconditional love and promoting friendship, it is said to keep partnerships in balance and can signal unfaithfulness if it changes colour. Wear these on their own or pair them with our matching necklace and bracelet. These elegant and fashionable earrings are wonderful as a gift for someone you love, or for yourself.
