Sun, Moon and Lapis Lazuli

When I look up at the sky, the beautiful sun shines. When I look up at the sky, the beautiful moon shines. Although the times are different, both are beautiful. Even setting aside the things we need in life, they leave a tangible radiance and impression in our hearts. There are countless beauties in the sky. I believe the brilliance of the sun and moon is especially beautiful. There is something salvific about looking up at the sky. That is why I am reminded once again that humans have regarded the sun and moon as sacred since ancient times. This time, the visible part of the stone setting is made from 10k gold, while the base and studs are made from 925 silver. I chose lapis lazuli for the setting stone. I hope that people of all genders can enjoy the harmony that can be felt when different personalities come together to form a single piece. *This piece is sold individually, not as a pair. If you would like a pair for both ears, please purchase two pieces. Each stone is unique and will have its own unique expression. We strive to ensure that each earring is perfectly matched, but due to the handmade nature of each piece, we cannot make two identical pieces. We appreciate your understanding. *We can also create jewelry using other stones or different stone sizes, so please feel free to contact us if you're interested. ~Details~ Lapis Lazuli: Cabochon, Round, 5mm Setting: 10K Gold Earring Post: 925 Silver Backing: 925 Silver with Silicone ~Natural Stone Description~ "Lapis Lazuli" Lapis lazuli, named for its sky-blue color, was introduced from Afghanistan along the Silk Road to Europe and other countries. It has long been considered a symbol of good fortune, and the color known as ultramarine in Japan is the color of lapis lazuli. "925 Silver" 925 Silver (also known as sterling silver) is made from 92.5% silver mixed with other metals such as copper. Because 100% pure silver is not durable enough for jewelry, 925 silver is often used for jewelry. It is also notable that 925 silver as a base metal is rarely sold to the general public. Like brass, silver can darken or yellow due to "sulfidation" caused by components in the air. Wiping it down after contact with water or sweat and storing it away from air during everyday storage will help maintain its shine. You can remove dark spots by polishing it with silver polish, but be careful as silver polish contains abrasives and can cause over-polishing or damage to the natural stone. The most important thing to be careful of is bathing in hot springs. The sulfur and other elements in hot springs can cause silver to turn completely black, making it impossible to polish. Therefore, never bathe in a hot spring while wearing silver. Important Notes Please note that you are responsible for any metal allergies.
