Martha Lopez often draws her design inspiration from her environment. The beachside paradise island of San Andrés, Colombia, is famous for its aquamarine waters. The lapping blue-green hypnosis of these waters is reflected in these aquamarine-hued Swarovski crystal earrings.
Swarovski crystal dates back to late-1800s Bohemia, a region of central Europe rich in royal history. Today, it is considered by many jewelry connoisseurs to be the finest full-lead crystal in existence. The near-flawless appearance of this crystal owes itself to the slow process by which the faux gemstone is cooled. The prismatic effect that is cast via the Swarovski crystal’s precision faceting takes the breath away.
The highest Andean range in Colombia, the Cordillero Central rises to a height of 10,000 feet (3,000 meters). The flanks of this volcanic structure boast crystalline rocks and localized gold and silver deposits, where 950 silver like that these earrings are constructed of is mined.
These Crystal and Silver earrings measure approximately 1.5 inches.
