Aqua Chalcedony Faceted Teardrop Drop Earrings · Silver

Chalcedony takes its name from Chalcedon, the ancient port facing Byzantium, prized by Greek and Roman carvers for cameos. Aqua chalcedony is a milky aqua blue, translucent, and in silver it runs cooler and slightly greyer. Here a faceted aqua chalcedony teardrop sits in a slim silver bezel and hangs from a plain wire hook, so it swings as you move without a sound.

Reach for it when you want to cool an outfit down. Silver and aqua run to one temperature, so the drop reads as a single pale note that swings as you move. Cool blue, quiet swing.

• Cool aqua that calms a busy outfit
• Silver on silver, one quiet temperature
• Wire hook, moves with you without a sound

Handcrafted by master silversmiths in Protsaah's own workshop in Jaipur, where every maker is paid 30 to 40% above the local market rate.

Aqua chalcedony is a cool stone and sits closest to cool or neutral skin, where its blue picks up blue, grey and green eyes without competing with them. Blonde and light brown hair keep the pairing light.

For warm or olive tones, carnelian or citrine in the same teardrop drop earring brings the warmth the aqua lacks. Not sure? Write to us at hello@protsaah.com and Salonie will recommend your stone personally.
