Mismatched Rough Sapphire Earrings

Mismatched Rough Sapphire Earring

Two sapphires, never the same, always in conversation. These Mismatched Rough Sapphire Earrings let you wear the wild beauty of September’s birthstone as it is, unpolished and alive.

Each rough sapphire sways from recycled sterling silver, catching the light like a whispered secret, grounding you in truth while lifting you toward wonder.

The sapphires are left rough and untamed, their raw edges held in simple prong settings that honor their natural form. Dangling lightly, they move with you, reminding you that beauty doesn’t need symmetry to feel whole.

Sapphires have long been symbols of wisdom and devotion, guiding hearts toward clarity and honesty. You’ll feel their steady presence every time they brush your skin.

Handcrafted in recycled sterling silver, these Mismatched Rough Sapphire Earrings are a soft rebellion against perfection. Each pair mismatched, each pair one of a kind. They invite you to step into your day with curiosity, to embrace what’s raw, real, and perfectly yours.

Recycled sterling silver

We work with a local refiner who recycles silver from post-consumer sources, like old jewelry, silverware, and even silver recovered from x-rays and other medical waste. This doesn’t stop new silver from being mined (most silver is a byproduct of other metals anyway), but it does cut emissions by about 8x compared to newly mined silver. And it keeps what already exists in circulation, instead of letting it go to waste.

Want to join in? If you have old silver jewelry or silverware gathering dust, you can bring it to our showroom. We’ll recycle it and give you shop credit in return.

Ethical Sapphire

These sapphires were mined by hand in Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo. No heavy machinery. Just wooden pans, riverbeds, and the skilled hands of Dayak miners who know this land better than anyone. Mined with care. Traded with respect. The miners are paid fairly, because beauty should never come at someone else’s cost.

Curious about where your sapphire comes from? Take a deeper look into the life of a Dayak sapphire miner in Kalimantan.

Sapphire

Sapphire is the September birthstone. The wisdom stone. Loyal, faithful, a keeper of truth. For centuries, people turned to sapphire to protect what they love.

She’s the friend who helps you see straight, the shield that keeps the bad energy out, the reminder to trust your gut. Her surface shines with power, but her real gift is softer: hope, peace, and the kind of insight that anchors you when life spins too fast.

If you’re building something that lasts, or craving clarity in the mess of everyday life, you’ll want sapphire by your side. Explore sapphire jewelry that keeps your wisdom close.

How to care for your jewelry

Over time, silver tends to tarnish, reflecting its personal journey with you. Depending on your environment, exposure to air, moisture, chemicals, and sebum, this process can speed up. Many find that this natural aging adds charm and character to each piece of jewelry.

If you prefer to keep your Mismatched Rough Sapphire Earrings shining, a little care goes a long way.

Please care for your jewelry using the soft cloth included in your purchase. For a gentle, natural cleaning option, consider adding soap nuts to your order.
