Polished Hematite and Sterling Silver Beaded Earrings by Emily Merrix. aquamarine jewelleryThese elegant and unusual earrings have been specially designed and made for Smithsonia, using pretty polished hematite discs and decorated and shiny silver beads. Hematite is revered as a protective stone, traditionally used to safeguard against negative energies. The total drop is 5. 2 cm, including the silver hook, and the widest bead measures approximately 0. 8 cm. They will be delivered in a Smithsonia gift box. For hygiene reasons we regret that

they would be lovely for everyday wear but could easily be worn for more special occasions too
