Pietersite stud earrings

These spectacular pietersite stud earrings are rustic and beautiful! The pietersite is set in sterling silver claw settings to reveal the maximum amount of color.

The earrings come with sterling silver pierced ear posts and butterfly backs. The stones each measure approximately 6-7 mm in size - perfect for everyday wear.

Pietersite is a trade name for a dark blue-grey breccia aggregate made up mainly of hawk's eye and tigereye. It is a variety of chalcedony (itself a variety of quartz) with embedded fibers of amphibole minerals in varying degrees of alteration. The fibers cause a blue chatoyancy like that seen in tigereye.

Because its swirling colors resemble a storm, pietersite is known as tempest stone. Pietersite is said to center on the spiritual being with the ability to ground an individual to the etheric body--the first or lowest layer in the "human energy field" or aura. Pietersite discharges negative energies and emotional turmoil while cleansing the aura, restoring it to calm.
