Wear the Ocean. Carry Its Calm. There is a moment at the water's edge when the light hits the surface just right, and everything beneath becomes visible. Blues, greens, sandy golds, all swirling together in perfect, effortless motion. That is exactly what you hold in your hand with these earrings. Each one features a polymer clay panel, hand sculpted with ocean marble swirls of blue, white, green and warm sandy gold. A sea turtle is sculpted directly into the clay, then sealed under a layer of resin so it gleams like something glimpsed just beneath the surface of the water. A filigree mandala stud finding sits at the top, adding an intricate, decorative detail that frames the piece beautifully. The whole drop measures 2 inches, long enough to be noticed, light enough to forget you are wearing them. The Story Behind This Piece Veronica of riverjewelsaz.com has always believed that the ocean holds something ancient and calming. The sea turtle, a symbol of wisdom, patience and the long journey, found its way into this piece naturally. The clay spoke first, and the turtle followed. This is jewelry for the woman who feels herself most, near the water. The one who collects shells, who watches the tide, who carries a quiet strength wherever she goes.
