Turquoise Matrix Drop Earrings
A pair of dangle or drop style earrings featuring free-form turquoise stones. The stones exhibit a vibrant robins-egg blue to teal hue with significant natural matrix—brown and black mineral veins that create a spiderweb-like pattern across the surface. The stones appear to be roughly tumbled rather than precisely faceted, giving them a rustic, organic aesthetic. Each stone is suspended from a metallic French hook (fishhook) ear wire, which includes a decorative coil and bead at the base of the loop. The metal lacks visible hallmark stamps, typically suggesting a base metal or possibly sterling silver consistent with Southwestern style jewelry. Based on the construction and findings, these are likely contemporary fashion pieces or artisan-crafted items from the late 20th to early 21st century. The condition appears fair to good with no immediate chips visible on the stone surfaces, though they are currently encased in a clear plastic protective bag which obscures fine surface scratches. The scale suggests a length of approximately 1 to 1.5 inches.
