Cognac Amber Dangling Heart Clip-on Earrings

A heart shaped piece of genuine Baltic Amber is framed by an open Sterling Silver setting that both protects it and lets light shine thru it. (Please see back view for setting detail.) This stone is known as Cognac Amber for its rich golden color. Hanging from a simple ball and loop clip, the drop which is 3/4 inch (19mm) high and just a wee bit wider brings the overall length of these non-pierced earrings to 1 and 1/16 inches (28mm). Gemstone Notes: The best Amber is the fossilized tree resin formed around 40 to 60 million years ago of now-extinct conifer trees and ancient pines in the Baltic region of northern Europe. From its earliest history adorning the jewelry of ancients on every continent, Amber fascinates with fragments of earth's ancient historical record preserved for eons.
