Iridescent Black Moonstone has a stunning glow - with shimmers of blue and silver shining out from the stones at every angle.
Why wear plain ear wires when you can add some style with a spiral loop! These Dangles hang from hand-formed anti-tarnish Argentium® Sterling Silver ear wires. Add a touch of class to any outfit with the silvery black glow of Labradorite.
Spiral Loops Earrings are a foundation piece from my Interchangeable Jewelry Collection. You can mix it up by collecting more Dangles to easily hang from these earrings!

About Black Moonstone
Black Moonstone is known by many names - Larvikite, Labradorite, Blue Pearl Granite, Blue Norwegian Moonstone, Marina Blue Star and more! It's an igneous rock only found in the Oslo-rift near Larvik, Norway. It's in the same family as Moonstone. In addition to using Larvikite as a gemstone, it is popular as a facing stone in buildings - it's used in New York City's United Nations building, many big banks and many pubs in the U.K.
Metaphysical Properties
Black Moonstone is believed to elevate consciousness and protect your aura, keeping it clear, balanced and protected.
About Argentium Sterling Silver
Argentium® – The Finest Silver - is a purer version of Sterling Silver that is also highly tarnish resistant. Standard "Sterling Silver" is an alloy composed of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. This is why you may also see "925 Sterling Silver" for items that are Sterling Silver.
Argentium® is made with 93.5% silver and 6.5% other metals, including germanium and copper, which gives Argentium® additional beneficial properties for jewelry makers. For my jewelry, the biggest benefit of using Argentium® instead of regular Sterling Silver is that it is anti-tarnish. It is also not plated, it is 100% Argentium® Sterling Silver - so there is no worry about plating rubbing off. Argentium® Sterling Silver jewelry is always hypoallergenic.
In addition to these benefits, Argentium® is responsibly manufactured, ethically sourced, and certified to be made with 100% recycled silver.
NOTE: Argentium® Silver jewelry should never be cleaned using silver "dip" cleaners. Please either wipe with a soft cloth or use only water and mild dish soap if you need to clean your Argentium® Sterling Silver jewelry.
I have many Argentium® products - and if you see something I've made with standard Sterling Silver, it's highly likely I can make it for you using Argentium® if you would like. Just contact me to ask!
