Oval Chrysocolla Gold Plated Sterling Silver Earrings

There are stones that carry the colour of old rivers, and chrysocolla is one of them. This pair holds two oval cabochons of chrysocolla, each stone a shifting field of teal and turquoise blue, set within slender bezels of gold plated sterling silver. The bezel work is unhurried, the metal pressed close and clean around each stone so that nothing interrupts the eye's movement across that quiet, mineral surface. Chrysocolla, found in copper-rich seams across the world, has long been favoured in Indian silver jewellery for the meditative depth of its colour, a quality that suits the restrained aesthetic of contemporary craft studios working in the silver tradition. The gold plating warms the cool stone without overwhelming it, creating the kind of tonal contrast that feels considered rather than decorative. Each earring measures approximately 1.65 inches in height and 0.45 inches in width (roughly 4.2 cm by 1.1 cm), and the pair weighs 9.4 grams together, substantial enough to feel present without pulling at the lobe. Wear these with a handwoven cotton sari in slate or ivory for an afternoon gathering, or alongside a linen kurta and block printed dupatta for a working day that deserves something quietly beautiful. The sterling silver base lends durability and hypoallergenic comfort for regular wear. The 1.65-inch drop sits elegantly below the jaw. A free-size hook closure makes the fit effortless for most ears, and the gold plated finish holds well with ordinary care.
