Parnassus Hoops

These pressed rope hoops have a sparkly little sunset billowing from the bottom of them, with a radially brushed finish to evoke the rays of the sun. Freckled Nevada #8 turquoise stones sway from the hoops and are finished off with a swirl of silver discs at the bottoms. The turquoise drops loop into the chunky bail (rather than being soldered directly to it) in order to allow for more movement and range of motion. Note that the brushed finish on the sunsets is much easier to see in the photos/videos in direct sun.

This is a somewhat heavier statement pair (each earring weighs about the equivalent of a quarter + a penny); they are best suited for those used to wearing larger earrings, but may also feel ok to those accustomed to medium-sized earrings. 

Materials: sterling silver, fine silver bezel, Nevada #8 turquoise

Weight: approx. 8.5 grams each ~ about the weight of a quarter and a penny
