Sleeping Beauty turquoise is known for its incredible aqua color, becoming the main focal point with its rich, refreshing shade. Our 14k yellow gold Athena Convertible earrings feature two hand-selected Sleeping Beauty turquoise smooth cabochons in the middle. Contemporary raindrop pear-shaped dagger dangles on the bottom lend pure artistry. Huggie hoops with curved posts add swing and movement.
Earrings Information
Natural Sleeping Beauty: Turquoise is an opaque blue-to-green mineral, technically a hydrated phosphate of copper and aluminum. It is available in numerous shades of blue and green colors, depending on its origin. The rarest and most beautiful is the robin’s egg blue variety from the now-defunct Sleeping Beauty mine in Arizona. Turquoise is a staple of Native American jewelry and some of it is highly collectible and rare. Some varieties of turquoise, like Kingman Turquoise, display black spiderweb veins (referred to as matrix).
Metaphysical Properties: Turquoise can balance the mood and be thought of as an oasis of calm. It is a highly sacred stone for the Native American community; the Navajo revere it as a stone of good luck and protection that also represents power, status, and luxury. More generally, the stone is life-giving, restorative, and a powerful tool for recharging your physical and spiritual energy.

This was my 8yo daughter’s first piercing and she was quite scared, but Nina and Matt were kind and understanding throughout. We got her a pair of thunder earrings and a beautiful bracelet.
We had to leave the studio after her first ear was pierced because she was having a meltdown, so we grabbed lunch at the local pub and came back to get her other ear pierced, which they kindly accommodated.
Their piercing studio is clean and pristine, not sterile, but rather vibrant and welcoming. They’re friendly and familiar and very professional. The jewelry selection was exceptional, the location perfect, the shop beautiful and homey. As soon as you walk through the door you’re treated like friends and family— something rare. It was a highly-personalized and luxurious experience.
Emma loves her thunder earrings and her bracelet, but most importantly learned that she can do hard things with family and friends along the way, and she is so proud of herself for having done so! Thanks Nina and Matt ❤️
Love my tiny diamond studs! Great for keeping in all the time. My only complaint is that it took over a month and multiple emails for them to arrive. With the wait though.
I got as a gift for my birthday & love it
The attention to detail regarding the placement of the piercings made my experience feel personal. I would like to personally say thank you again for the most lovely and enjoyable experience, and I will definitely be back also you have the most beautiful jewelry!
My mom and I had a great experience! Nina was very patient and took her time with us!
