Day and Night Meet Earth
These married metal earrings are made of copper, silver, and azurite mixed with malachite.
The rawness of these earrings accentuates the hand-hewn process of their creation. Malachite and azurite stone look like a snapshot of earth from space, while copper and silver symbolize the sun and moon.
Primitive!
Approximately 1 and 3/4 inches long by 1/2 an inch wide. Silver earring wires.

Azurite Malachite Dangling Earrings
It is rare to find stones like these, so I was so excited when I came across them. This particular set of stones comes from southern Arizona which is also a plus. (I like to buy locally when I can – and the southwest has great gems and minerals to chose from).
Azurite is a deep blue copper mineral, and so it is found in areas where there are copper deposits. Because azurite and malachite have a similar chemical composition, they can be found together, making a striking color combination of deep blue and bright green. (Wikipedia)
These earrings are hand-cut and hand-hammered. It is increasingly difficult to find stones like these, so I don’t know when I will be making my next pair.
