Natural White Mother of Pearl 14K Gold over .925 Sterling Silver handcrafted earrings

Mother of Pearl earrings sterling silver — these natural white nacre pieces feature an animal-shaped cut set in .925 silver with 14K gold overlay. Total weight: 11.20 grams. Dimensions: 1 1/2 inches long, 7/8 inch wide, 3/8 inch thick.

Mother of Pearl forms inside mollusk shells as layers of aragonite crystals bond with organic compounds. This nacre rates 2.5-4.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, giving it a soft luster without brittleness. The white color displays the characteristic iridescent sheen that shifts in light. Gold-toned accents frame the animal silhouette, while the sterling silver base (stamped 925) provides durable support beneath the 14K gold vermeil finish.

Part of the Pattaya Collection, these earrings work for office wear or evening events. The substantial weight sits secure without pulling. SilverRush Style has sold natural-stone jewelry since 2005. Orders ship free within the US. Add these to your collection today.
