amethyst (green) on geometric buckle earrings
Green Amethyst cut in a long teardrop shape. The faceting on these Amethyst is very delicate and very sparkly. The Green Amethyst is 26.90 carats and is rated as IF (internally flawless). These stones were mined in Brazil. The setting is a folded piece of Argentium silver with a granule accent, reminiscent of a buckle. Both the profile and straight on, are interesting on this geometric buckle design earring.

Argentium Silver is a high quality silver with a silver content of 935. It has the unique feature of having a small amount of Germanium added. Argentium Silver is whiter, harder and slower to tarnish. And it is always nickel-free.
I hand make all the earwires and posts with Argentium Silver, so all my earrings are nickel-free.
