A striking pair of vintage sterling silver drop earrings set with richly banded malachite cabochons. Each earring features two oval stones in graduated sizes, joined to create an articulated drop. The malachite displays beautiful natural striations in shades of emerald, and forest green.
Each cabochon is held in a fine sawtooth bezel and surrounded by a radiating silver border with darkened recessed details, giving the earrings their distinctive Southwestern character. The combination of bold green malachite and softly oxidized sterling makes these an especially beautiful statement pair.
