A small, perfectly formed ¾" sterling silver hoop — its ends balled and looped by hand — joined at the center by a genuine blue kyanite drop, flat and elongated, falling approximately 1¼" below the hoop. The entire earring measures just under 1¾" in length, creating a piece that is at once delicate and dramatically present.

Fine gauge brass wire is threaded through the kyanite and wrapped carefully around the sterling silver on each side, anchoring the stone with quiet artisan precision. The deep, layered blue of the kyanite catches the light beautifully against the bright sterling silver, its flat drop shape moving gracefully with every turn of the head.

There is something elemental about kyanite — its color shifting from pale sky to deep ocean depending on the light, its flat natural form feeling less like a cut stone and more like something found. Worn here, it transforms a simple hoop into something truly one of a kind.

A stunning artisan gemstone jewelry gift for the woman who loves genuine stones, natural beauty, and handcrafted pieces with soul.

  • Genuine blue kyanite flat drop, approximately 1¼" in length
  • ¾" handformed sterling silver hoop
  • Fine gauge brass wire wrapping
  • Sterling silver ear wire
  • Approximately 1¾" total length

Handcrafted by Athena in Vermont.

Jewelry Care

Jewelry Care
Take off your jewelry before doing any activity that could damage it, like cleaning, exercising, or bathing. Also, avoid sleeping in your jewelry. 
Keep away from moisture and humidity. Store in a cool dry place like a jewelry box or bag.
Store safely: Store your jewelry in a soft-lined box or case to prevent scratching. 
Cleaning: I recommend removing tarnish with a jewelry polishing cloth.
Patina: Metal will patina over time due to a variety of factors like humidity, body oils, etc. Some people like the antiquity look and some don’t. You can remove patina by using a jewelry polishing cloth. I recommend Sunshine polishing cloths.
