Natural Vintage Gaspeite & Sterling Silver Earrings, Gaspeite Studs, Gaspeite Cabochons, Gaspeite Green outlets Earrings, Green Studs, Navajo Stud

Lovely and very unique vintage Gaspeite & Sterling Stud Earrings. Approximately 3/4" X 3/4" in size. Can be polished up delicately outlets, I left them with their vintage patina. Includes silver backings.

These are natural & un-dyed. They have an incredible light spring green color with a beautiful rugged matrix. Very unusual and difficult to find. These look really great with practically anything and people are fascinated by the unusual color and matrix of the stones.
