These lovely sapphires might look black, but they have a hint of dark chocolate brown and the flickering of stars inside. Dangling from trillion cut sapphire posts are intricately hand formed and stamped sterling silver serpents. Symbolizing wisdom and intuition, the serpents coil and dance with graceful movement, while the rich, earthy hues of the sapphires evoke a sense of grounding and inner strength. They are both sophisticated and a little daring. The earrings dangle 2 inches from the post.
