Turquoise beads- of three different colors and mines linked on a bit of sterling chain and ending in an interesting sterling silver drop.

These earrings have a drop of 2 1/4 inches, but have a very light weight- comfortable to wear all day!

Turquoise comes in wide ranges of quality, color, natural veining or synthetic treatments, and I have some of each. My favorite is Sleeping Beauty Turquoise from an Arizona mine, and it is usually a very true light turquoise color with no veining at all, rather more costly then the rest!

But all of it has it's own beauty, and these earrings do have two Sleeping Beauties, but the others beads are just turquoise but the real thing!
