Stone Drop Earring

Hand hammered 14kt gold fill earrings with briolette cut smokey quartz 1 5/8" in length. From the designers:  GOLD FILLED:     Karat gold is bonded to a rod (about the size of a traffic flare) or brick of CDA bronze alloy with silver solder, heat, and pressure.  Metallurgy and magic combine to anneal, roll, and draw these chunks to prescribed gauges of wire and sheet.  Gold filled standards require the karat gold layer to compose 1/20th or 5% of the total weight of the piece, as well as be at least 10K. We use 14k gold filled.
