Turquoise set into a slim inside outside hoop - a design that places the stones on both the inner and outer surfaces of the hoop wire, creating 360-degree color presence that catches light differently depending on the angle and the wearer's movement. At 3mm round cabochon, these turquoise stones are small and refined, creating a dotted color accent rather than a bold statement - the kind of detail that rewards close attention without demanding it from across the room. Turquoise's appeal in fine and artisan jewelry is both visual and cultural: its robin's-egg to sky-blue color range is immediately distinctive, and the stone has a centuries-long presence in jewelry traditions across the American Southwest, the Middle East, and Central Asia. The rhodium over sterling silver hoop provides a cool-metal setting that lets the turquoise color read clearly. At just under 1 inch in length, these hoops are an everyday wearable size. The hinge with notched post closure is secure and easy to operate. Specifications: Metal: rhodium over sterling silver. Stone: turquoise, 3mm round cabochon, natural. Style: inside/outside hoop.

The hinge closure and 0.99-inch length make these a practical everyday hoop. Turquoise should be kept away from harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure.

To say that these earrings are striking would be to undervalue their attention-getting power. The Sleeping Beauty turquoise adds an amazing, eye-catching explosion of blue!

There is so much that sets these earrings apart. First, they are a contemporary and stylish interpretation of the turquoise earring. They represent a great look that works for every season and with every style of dress. Turquoise isn’t just for cowgirls anymore!

Second, these earrings add a powerful pop of color to even the simplest of outfits. Jeans and a tee shirt? Check. Gray business suit? Check. Dinner and cocktails? Check. The little black dress? Oh yes ... check and more check!

Finally, they have a secure, latch-back, locking closure that won’t pull open unless you press the button on the lock. (You can just barely see the button in the image here.) Then it is easy-peasy on and off – how refreshing!

Did we mention that they are beautiful? We should have – they are.
