These turquoise post dangle earrings, also named The Anais Earrings, are fun, flirty and just fabulous.

Magnificent turquoise gemstones sit within silver bezel cups.  Not only do they have a unique shape, but the copper striations make them even more special.  The cut of the turquoise is referred to as trillion.

Decorative textured wire frames each turquoise gemstone.  In addition to framing the stones the wire curls into a loop that holds a silver pendulum.  

Different types of wire were used to handcraft these lovely earrings:

• First – Argentium silver was used for the frame and the pendulum.
• Second – The base of the bezel and both posts and ear nuts are sterling silver
• The bezel is fine silver.

Turquoise gemstones are both classic and timeless.  Afterall, “some experts think turquoise is the first gemstone ever mined”.  Yet in spite of that, these turquoise post dangle earrings are very contemporary and chic.
