Cloud and Aquamarine Drop Post Earrings

Cloud and Aquamarine Drop Post Earrings

$72.00

My Sky and Ocean series...Sewed on 22 gauge sterling silver sheet, two clouds - one slightly larger than the other, were hammered to reflect light and soldered with sterling silver posts. The stones are faceted aquamarine briolettes. The cloud part is about 13mm-15mm wide. I love the idea of using aquamarine to pair with the clouds, meaning "ocean" in ancient Latin. After all, the water in the clouds comes from the ocean and it's a continuous cycle.

I would like to share this quote here:

"Nothing is created, nothing is lost. Before assuming the form of a cloud, the cloud was water vapor, produced from water in the ocean and the heat of sunlight. So being a cloud is only a continuation. A cloud has not come from nothing. A cloud always comes from something. So there is no birth; there is only a continuation. That is the nature of everything: no-birth, no-death..." - Thich Nhat Hanh

About the stones: Aquamarine evokes the purity of crystalline waters, and the exhilaration and relaxation of the sea. It is calming, soothing, and cleansing, and inspires truth, trust and letting go. ... The name Aquamarine comes from the Latin aqua marinus, meaning "water of the sea," and refers to its sparkling ocean-like color.
