Islande || Romantic Rose Quartz Earrings
These earrings are made with rounded block rose quartz stones, 14k Gold-Filled or Sterling Silver, and smaller round rose quartz stones.
"Rose quartz beads dating back to 7000 BC have been found in the area once known as Mesopotamia (today’s Iraq). Rose quartz jewelry was known to be crafted by the Assyrians around 800-600 BC. The Assyrians, along with the Romans, might have been the first to use this stone.
People in the earliest recorded times believed in the magical powers of quartz. Ancient Roman, Egyptian, and Greek civilizations used quartz crystals as potent talismans. The Romans used rose quartz as a seal to signify ownership, and Egyptians believed the stone could prevent aging.
In the Middle Ages, medical practitioners used quartz in their healing potions. Early cultures of the Americas used quartz amulets. Known as the “love stone,” it was said to balance the emotions and to heal anger and disappointment." - Rose Quartz history provided by the Gemological Institute of America

CARE AND CONSIDERATIONS
14k Gold-Filled jewelry is significantly more tarnish resistant and precious than gold-plated. Gold-filled has an actual layer of karat gold vs a thin film on gold-plated. All of The Black Walnut's gold-filled jewelry pieces are proudly 12-karat or 14-karat and meet the federal quality standards set by the FTC.
Sterling Silver is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. The addition of copper to silver gives it a strength and durability making it perfect for everyday wear. If you have metal allergy that does not allow you to wear sterling silver, I usually have fine silver (99.9% pure silver) available. Please contact me directly. :)
Polish your jewelry with a soft cloth and avoid using harsh chemicals to clean. Be sure to store in a dry place. Each piece is designed by The Black Walnut Studio in Greensboro North Carolina. Designs are handmade and may vary slightly with each order.
