Rio Style Sterling Silver Earrings  

Bold Sculptural Forms Meet Natural Stone Character

The rio style draws from organic forms found in nature: river bends, wind-shaped rock, the spiral of a nautilus shell. Our silversmiths work these references into earring designs that balance weight and movement. Heavier stones sit in structured bezels while lighter pieces allow for gentle swing and play against the neck. Stones in this collection include turquoise from Arizona and Nevada mines, labradorite with its characteristic schiller effect, and various jasper varieties rated 6.5-7 on the Mohs hardness scale for daily wear durability. Each stone carries natural inclusions and color variations specific to its geographic origin, meaning no two pairs present identical patterning. Sterling silver at .925 purity provides the structural integrity these sculptural designs require. The metal develops a soft patina over time, though regular wear often maintains natural polish through skin contact.
