Rory 6 mm Lazuli and 18K Gold Post Bead Earrings

Description

Classic and versatile, the Rory 6 mm lapis lazuli gold bead earrings are the perfect accessory for any look. We make them with highly polished lapis lazuli beads and solid 18K gold posts and closures.

First, the petite 6 mm beads show off the deep blue of the stone. Often they carry tiny golden flecks of pyrite, which echo the warm 18K gold. Our artisans in Chile select and polish each bead by hand, and they match every pair for size and color.

Lapis lazuli has a long history. The Egyptians and Mesopotamians treasured it, and later painters ground it into ultramarine pigment. So, in a way, these simple studs carry a little of that heritage with them.

Because the posts and closures are solid gold, the earrings feel smooth and secure. They sit close to the ear, which makes them easy to wear at the office, at the gym or at a celebration. They also pair well with a lapis pendant or a gold chain, for example.

These lapis lazuli gold bead earrings are an ideal first piece of fine lapis jewelry. In addition, they make a lovely gift for birthdays, graduations or the holidays. Many people buy a second pair to keep at the office or in a travel kit.
