The four-Is (Isadora, Isabella, Irene & Iris) are an Interesting, Iconic, Impressive and Irresistible group of earrings with extraordinary gemstones. These 2 1/2" mixed metal earrings feature long smooth tourmalinated quartz gemstones with striking oxidized sterling silver earwires with a swooping bronze accent. Tourmalinated quartz is crystal quartz with thin needle-like inclusions of black tourmaline that separate from the quartz as the two minerals cool after being mixed together under high temperature and pressure.

Cost: $84.00 USD

Length: earrings - 2 1/2"

Materials:

  • tourmalinated quartz gemstones
  • 14kt gold-fill components
  • oxidized sterling silver and bronze earwires

Care & cleaning: Clean with warm soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft jewelry polishing cloth to clean tarnish appearing on metal.

The earrings are likely to withstand greater tugs and pulls than will the wearer of the earrings! As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.

These 2.5" earrings are classic in design and dramatic in appearance thanks to the deep contrast and unexpected pattern in the materials. The gemstones are large so the earrings are not lightweight, though not unduly heavy either.
