{"product_id":"sterling-silver-high-grade-white-moonstone-teardrop-earrings","title":"Sterling Silver White Moonstone Teardrop Earrings","description":"\u003cp\u003eMoonstone is a feldspar mineral, its most remarkable quality a phenomenon known as adularescence: a floating, billowing light that moves across the surface of the stone as it is turned, appearing to come from within rather than from any external source. In high grade white moonstone, this inner light takes on a blue flash, a vivid, electric blue that shifts and moves with the angle of the light, appearing and disappearing as the stone moves. It is caused by the interference of light between the alternating layers of feldspar within the stone, and no two stones display it in quite the same way. The finest stones are found in Sri Lanka, India, and Myanmar, and the blue flash is the quality marker that separates exceptional moonstone from the ordinary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoonstone has been associated with the moon, with intuition, and with the feminine for thousands of years, worn in ancient Rome and India as a stone of mystery and inner knowing. It is associated with the crown and third eye chakras, and in energy work is said to support intuition, emotional clarity, and the ability to move through cycles of change with grace. It is a stone of the in-between, of thresholds and transitions, of the light that appears when you look at things from a different angle. A stone that rewards attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese earrings each centre on a single high grade white moonstone teardrop, faceted to draw out the full depth of the blue flash: the cut allowing light to enter and move through the stone so that the adularescence shifts and intensifies with every movement. Each stone is selected for the quality and consistency of its flash, a stone that moves from translucent white to vivid blue as it catches the light. Set in sterling silver claw settings that hold the stone securely while leaving its face fully open to the light, and mounted on sterling silver earposts. Sterling silver throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eArrives gift-ready.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePart of the White Moonstone collection.
