◊ These delightful gold nugget earrings are perfect for those who love gold, but would like an organic take on the material.

◊ The gold nuggets, which average 22k (90%) pure are completely unaltered, except for a light tumbling they receive after having 14k gold ear posts soldered to them.

◊ Gold is formed in quartz deposits in the earth in gold bearing veins and lodes. Erosion of the exposed gold pulls it into watercourses and eventually it is deposited in a placer; an accumulation of valuable minerals formed by gravity separation in the sedimentary process. Throughout the journey down the watercourse, the natural movements of water in the streams tumbles the gold against sand and rocks, forming the gold nuggets. This natural process gives each nugget its own unique texture, shape, and character. Therefore no two are exactly alike.

◊ These earrings are ready to ship.
