Turn heads with these delightfully easy to wear handmade copper crescent moon dangle earrings with faceted green chrysoprase beads. The copper and chrysoprase are a perfect complement for each other with the warm copper and the contrast of the cool green chrysoprase. The facets on the beads add extra interest along with the darker matrix inclusions. The copper crescent moons have a sand texture finish and we have have left the copper bright although we can oxidize them for a darker finish if desired. The copper will age beautifully over time and develop a rich warm patina and can be polished up with a "sunshine cloth" or other polishing cloth to restore their brightness if desired. These have great boho character and will pair beautifully with other copper jewelry.
Earrings measure 2 and 1/8" long and the moon is 3/8" wide at widest point.

The ear wires are solid, pure copper and are 18 gauge which is a tiny bit thicker than standard 20 gauge ear wires. 18 gauge is a better choice for copper ear wires as they are sturdier and do not bend out of shape as easily as 20 gauge. Although if you need the thinnest ear wire we can put 20 gauge on them and you will just need to be a little more careful about their care.

Copper is a wonderful metal and is hypoallergenic and very compatible with human skin.
