Like water carving its path through an ancient canyon floor, these Royston Ribbon turquoise earrings tell a story of time and transformation. Each stone features a deep brown matrix—textured and cracked like an old riverbed—cut through by two vivid turquoise veins that flow vertically from top to bottom.

The teardrop stones are framed in hand-forged sterling silver, bordered with a fine wire edge, and anchored with a single silver bead reminiscent of a smooth river pebble. The silver has been oxidized to highlight every detail, then hand-burnished to a soft desert glow.

With 1" stones and a 2" total drop length, these earrings have a graceful presence—substantial enough to make a statement, yet balanced for everyday wear.

Details:

  • Natural Royston Ribbon turquoise (Nevada, USA)

  • Stone size: approx. 1" long x ¾" wide

  • Total earring drop: 2"

  • Sterling silver setting, border, and ear wires

  • Silver bead accent

  • Oxidized and polished finish

  • Handmade in Durango, Colorado

Meaning:
These earrings honor the beauty of endurance—the quiet way water shapes even the hardest stone. The turquoise rivers symbolize clarity, truth, and flow; the dark brown earth represents grounding and resilience. Together, they remind us that strength and softness coexist beautifully.
