Product Benefits
- 4mm round blue obsidian beads – Small, evenly matched beads give a smooth run of colour rather than one large focal stone
- Rows wrapped over sterling silver – The beads sit in lines along the spiral, so the blue reads as a solid band of colour from a distance
- 3 inch length, 1 inch width – Long and narrow, which suits close-fitting necklines and keeps the earrings from competing with a necklace
- Sterling silver French wires – Precious metal at the ear and an easy hook closure
- Hand-wrapped spiral shape – Formed by hand, so each pair has slight variation and movement
- Gift boxed – Presentation-ready for a birthday or holiday gift
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is blue obsidian?
Obsidian is a natural volcanic glass. In these earrings it is cut into 4mm round beads and wrapped in rows over a sterling silver spiral, which is what creates the run of blue colour.
Q2. What size are these earrings?
Approximately 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. The narrow width makes them long rather than broad, so they hang close to the neck.
Q3. Will the beads come loose?
The beads are wrapped onto the silver by hand rather than glued. As with any wire-wrapped piece, avoid pulling on the beads or catching them on clothing and scarves.
Q4. Are these suitable for everyday wear?
Yes. They are light for their length and simple to put on. Take them off before sleeping or exercising, since hook earrings of this length can catch.
Q5. How do I clean them?
Wipe the beads with a soft dry cloth. Use a silver polishing cloth only on the exposed silver, and avoid dipping the earrings in liquid silver cleaner, which can seep between the wraps.
