These monochromatic green earrings are comprised of faceted green amethyst, faceted green apatite, and sterling silver. Height is approximately 1.5 inches.  They have been hand-formed and shaped, and the sterling circles have a hammered surface. I applied a slightly darkened patina for a vintage appeal.  All metal is solid sterling 925.

In autumn when the trees are brown
The little leaves come tumbling down
They do not make the slightest sound
But lie so quietly on the ground
Until the wind comes puffing by
And blows them off towards the sky.

The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop away from you
like the leaves of Autumn.

John Muir
