Egyptian Turquoise Earring
Egyptian Turquoise Earring
This design goes back millennia! Egyptian women wore this design and evidently the Etruscan women loved it as well and it is has been worn ever since. Turquoise and Lapis were mainstay colors for the Egyptians in general. Painted on their ways to women grinding it down and used for eyeshadow (hello Elizabeth Taylor ) They used the actual stones in mosaics and the specific color combination was worn like we wear black and white.
Turquoise and Lapis has ALWAYS been one of my all time favorite color combinations and I have quite a few necklaces using those stones.
Three round Turquoise cylinders with gold accents. The color is far far easier than you’d think it would be. All blues and lavenders-plums and and and.
Measures approximately 2.5“ long from the top of the 14 karat gold fill ear wire.
