YS Gems Sterling Silver Crazy Lace Agate Gemstone Dangle Earring - 0.71 x 1.42

Product Description:

Agate's name is derived from the site of its discovery, the river Achates (now Dirillo) in southwest Sicily. You will often find striking curved or angular banded patterns of color flowing within agate, which are caused by the presence of various minerals, often iron and manganese. One of the oldest known gemstones, agate is a favored material of lapidaries and artisans around the world.

The earrings feature a light grayish-beige oval-shaped crazy lace agate stone, with swirling patterns of light and dark colors. The stone is set within a frame of sterling silver metal alloy, with a decorative rope-like border encircling the stone. Three small, round, light yellow-gold colored citrine gemstones are set above the central stone, arranged in a stylized triangular fashion. The earrings are attached to silver-colored sterling silver ear wires with a typical hook design for hanging.
