This pair of Spiny Oyster Sterling Silver Earrings is just full of natural beauty. These earrings feature an impressive design made from genuine Spiny Oyster and Sterling Silver. The warm orange of the Spiny Oyster and the gleam of the Silver compliment one another beautifully. Rows of hand-made Sterling Silver balls are placed on two sides of each earring next to the hand-twisted wire that surrounds the round cabochons of Spiny Oyster. These Spiny Oyster post earrings are 3/4" long and 5/8" wide. Stamped Sterling. Hand-made and signed by the artist LM. The matrix in Spiny Oyster stones may vary slightly.

The Spiny Oyster gemstone is actually the colorful shell that comes from the species Spondylus varius also known as the Spiny Oyster or Thorny Oyster. The Thorny Oyster is a bivalve mollusk that dwells primarily in tropical ocean waters. They can be found along the coasts of North Carolina all the way down to the waters near Brazil. It is a stunning animal to look at, and it is often a subject for underwater photography. The dazzling shells of the Thorny Oyster are rare finds and they're treasured for their beautiful red, brown, yellow, purple, and white colors.
