White Moonstone stud earrings: Solid .925 sterling silver handmade jewelry

Gorgeous gems:

These moonstones almost literally capture the soft glow of the moon.

Awesome earrings:

These earrings are expertly hand-set in our rural Oregon studio. The solid sterling silver serrated settings we use for cabochons are Native-American made in the US. These are low-profile settings with somewhat thick, short posts and are really comfortable especially if you sleep in your earrings.

What is a cabochon, anyway?

The cabochon "cab" cut results in a low-profile earring with smooth surfaces that are sensory-sensitivity friendly and have a more minimalist, boho style. Cabochon earrings often feature solid, non-translucent stones, or "silky" semi-transparent gems. Some examples of popular stones are turquoise, lapis lazuli, moonstone, and labradorite. If your personal style tends towards cottagecore, witchy, goth, or dark academia, you may find that cabochon earrings suit you perfectly! They are no-glitz, sleek, and have an upscale alternative vibe. Into crystal healing lore or unique earrings? You'll find some cabochon earring options not available in traditional faceted gems.

How to choose your earring size:

Most of our cabs are offered in 4mm and/or 6mm sizes. 4mm is a dainty earring, while 6mm is more noticeable but still not "large". 4mm & 6mm cabs look smaller than their faceted counterparts, so size up if in doubt. Scroll through the images for the best size references!
