Leopardite Jasper Teardrop Earrings, Earthy Gemstone Handmade Jewelry

The unique "Macchiata" handmade earrings feature leopardite gemstone teardrop earrings and copper - earthy jewelry gift for women.

If you're looking for wonderfully organic gemstone earrings to go a little wild in, then the MACCHIATA teardrop earrings are perfect for you! Earthy jewelry that you will reach for over and over again, the earrings were created with spotted leopardite jasper, copper and sterling silver. Mined in Peru, leopardite jasper (also sometimes called safari jasper) has leopard-like spots and swirls created by iron and manganese deposits. In fact the name “jasper” is derived from Greek and means “spotted stone.” The earrings feature two amazing leopardite teardrops with a background of pale creamy beige liberally sprinkled with spots of varying sizes and shapes. The colors of the spots range from a rusty brown through taupe darker brown and black, beautifully highlighted by the pale background. As you can see in the photos, each teardrop is similar but each definitely has its own spotted personality.  

To add eye catching glow to the earrings design, small copper discs spacers cap the top and bottom of the leopardite jasper teardrops. One disc with a small copper bead is found at the bottom. A stack of two discs and a copper bicone bead is found at the top. All the elements used to create the earrings were strung on handmade copper head pins with hand hammered loops at the end. Sterling silver French hook earwires with copper bead accents finish the earrings perfectly. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the MACCHIATA leopardite teardrop earrings were created for the woman who loves fun, earthy gemstone jewelry. "Macchiata" is Italian for "spotted."

The leopardite teardrops are filled with natural spots against a creamy beige background.
