Like tree branches silhouetted against a white winter sky, clear quartz crystal oval stones are embedded with dramatic, needle-like inclusions of black tourmaline. I've prong-set theses one-of-a-kind stones in sterling silver wire settings that I've oxidized to reflect the tourmaline inclusions.
Tourmalated Quartz is also one of the my a two birthstones for October (Libra, Scorpio). It's also aligned with Capricorn (January).
The stones measure 11/16" wide and 1" long. The total length of the earrings is 1 3/4".
