Chrysocolla Malachite Earrings

These square Chrysocolla Malachite earring stones are so unique - from their shape to the gorgeous dark brown with aqua blue and green mixed in.  These earrings are lightweight, with silver-plated, nickel-free french hook earring wires.  Chrysocolla, the king of carbonate copper gemstones, is a vivid blue-green color and is often mistaken for turquoise because they share many visual similarities. It can often be found intermingled with malachite, turquoise and azurite, creating a wonderful mixed gemstone known as Eilat stone (named after the city where it was once mined). Legend has it that Eilat stone was originally quarried in King Solomon's mines in Africa--which is partly why it is the national stone of Israel. The rich, vibrant blue and green colors of chrysocolla are reminiscent of looking down upon the earth's surface from space. Metaphysical Properties: Chrysocolla is a stone of both gentleness and of power. It encourages expression. Harmonizing the heart and throat chakras, Chrysocolla deepens our understanding of others. This special empathy also helps our own words flow and allows us to ‘talk through’ anything. It inspires us to be expressive and genuine and to speak truthfully. ** Please note that all metaphysical or healing properties listed are collected from various sources.
