Sodalite Copper Wire Drop Earrings - Sodalite is the quiet blue.

It does not have lapis's saturation or turquoise's brightness — it is a softer, cloudier blue-and-white, closer to weather than to gemstone. That makes it considerably easier to wear every day, and it is why these are the pair most likely to live on your dresser rather than in a box.

Two rounds to an ear, each wrapped in warm copper wire that curls around the stone rather than hiding behind it. The ear wires are formed by hand as well.

Copper left unlacquered will warm and deepen against skin over time. That is intended. If you prefer it bright, a soft cloth brings it back in a moment.

Natural stone, so the blues will vary from pair to pair.
