Copper lightning bolts are hand formed with hammered edges and hang from 6 mm round Bluebird turquoise studs with copper bezel. The lightning bolts can be removed so these earrings can be worn two ways: turquoise studs alone or with the lightning bolts attached. Total length is 2 inches. 

Turquoise brings the blue of Father Sky to Mother Earth, and the lighting bolt is a conduit of energy that radiates from the sky to the earth. The two of these together is a perfect balance of female and male energy-turquoise is very calm, soothing and grounding while lightning represents power and strength, having the ability to illuminate dark skies. 

I have a trusted supplier for turquoise and to know that the turquoise in this piece is ethically sourced and mined in America is important to me. Turquoise can vary and range in quality and these are just a few factors to consider- the color, where and how it was mined and it’s hardness. Knowing that these stones were mined right here in the southwest, southern Arizona in particular, aligns with the regional style that is infused into my work. I have a great love for the southwest and a love for the color and quality of this particular turquoise and I value that it was responsibly mined and produced.
