This is a gorgeous well made pair of Argentinian Rhodochrosite earrings set in solid sterling silver. Each stone measures a nice 12mm x 10mm and is set in a silver setting with a rope border followed by beadwork and circles. They dangle from silver fish hooks and are a full one and a quarter inches in length. Each earring is stamped 925. The Greek word for pink, the Rhodochrosite crystal meaning is associated with the rose, the symbol of love that can be traced back to the Incas, who called the stone "Inca Rose."
