Description: Intricately Carved Meerschaum Floral Bracelet and Clip Earring SetUnique Meerschaum beads make up this stunning two-piece set of beautifully hand-carved roses and flowers. The bracelet is a stretch design, and earrings are made with clip backs, but backs could be converted. (Note pictures with different coins for size comparison.) Despite the large size of the beads, the jewelry is very lightweight. The soft material of Meerschaum tends to discolor with age and use, this is normal & acceptable. This set has some discoloration, see pictures. Circa 1950's. Meerschaum, which means "sea foam", is a natural combination of metal, stone, and water, one of the lightest minerals on earth (it floats!). At the end of the Third Geological Period, the area known today as Turkey emerged from the bottom of the ocean. The fossilized remains of the minute sea animals and their shells were compressed by earthquakes, shifted by successive glacial movements, and finally deposited as small amorphous blocks around Eskisehir, Turkey. Meerschaum is carved into fine jewelry such as pins, necklaces, and bracelets, as well as exquisite animal carvings and pipes. Every effort has been made to ensure accurate descriptions. The pictures should be considered as part of the item description. Please review all the pictures for overall condition and style and ask if you have any questions.
