Known for its flawless sky-blue color, Sleeping Beauty Turquoise is the rarest and most sought-after turquoise. The Sleeping Beauty Mine was closed in 2012, so each piece of Sleeping Beauty Turquoise is truly a rare and collectible treasure. These earrings feature 33.65 carats of natural perfect sky-blue turquoise beads hand beaded on 18K recycled gold wire. The beads graduate in size and measure approximately 1/2” x 1/4” at the top and 3/4” x 1/2” at the bottom and hang 2.5” from 18K recycled gold ear wire. All stones are ethically sourced.
