The color of this turquoise heishi is a fabulous vivid blue with just enough matrix to make it interesting. Accented with gorgeous silver beads, its finished with an unusual double heart clasp.

Foret's Special Peridot and Pearl Earrings are a wonderful combination of sterling silver, peacock green pearls and smooth, almost oval shaped peridot nugget beads. The color of the peridot is a pure, gorgeous green ... this is a very pretty combination you'll love to wear!

The variety of gemstone colors is just amazing, and the peacock green color of the pearls is a great match.
