The Aquamarine Teardrop Dangle Earrings in Sterling Silver are a quiet, elegant way to wear color. Each earring holds a teardrop-shaped aquamarine in soft sea green, set in a sterling silver prong setting and hung from hand-forged sterling silver French hooks.
They're handmade in our Florida Keys studio and one of a kind, so they feel personal, polished, and easy to wear every day.
A Softer Shade of Aquamarine
Most people picture aquamarine as pale blue, but the stone naturally ranges from blue to sea green. These stones were chosen for their soft green tone and clear, glowing translucence, which looks like shallow Keys water in the sun.
Handmade, Detail by Detail
Each stone is held in a sterling silver prong setting, which grips the gem with small claws so more light can pass through it. The French hooks are forged by hand from sterling silver, and the minimalist design keeps the focus on the stones.

Frequently Asked Questions
What color is aquamarine?
Aquamarine ranges from pale blue to sea green. Its color comes from small amounts of iron in the stone, and both blue and green aquamarine are natural.
Is aquamarine the March birthstone?
Yes. Aquamarine is the March birthstone. It symbolizes calm, clarity, and courage, which makes it a meaningful gift for March birthdays.
Are these earrings real sterling silver?
Yes. The prong settings and French hooks are ethically sourced sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver mixed with other metals for strength.
What is a prong setting?
A prong setting holds a gemstone with small metal claws instead of a solid rim. It lets more light pass through the stone, so it looks brighter and more translucent.
Is aquamarine durable enough for everyday wear?
Yes. Aquamarine is a hard gemstone, rating 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, so it holds up well to everyday wear with basic care.
How do you clean aquamarine earrings?
To clean aquamarine earrings, wash them gently with warm water and mild soap, then dry with a soft cloth. Polish the sterling silver with a silver cloth to remove tarnish.
