Gold Teton Heart Earrings

Description

These Teton heart earrings were cast in 14kt yellow gold. We also cast the Teton heart earrings in 14kt white gold and sterling silver. There is a small pendant to match. In addition to the small pendant we have a larger version. Any of the Teton heart collection can have a diamond added. The diamond would be at an additional cost. The chains are not included in the price when buying the pendants.

The Tetons stand over 7,000 feet above the valley floor. From almost anywhere in Teton valley the peaks are visible. For most of the year snow is covering the tops of the peaks. Being such an iconic image, we feature a number of mountain designs. This includes Teton pendants, rings, earrings and bracelets.

14kt gold is a great metal for an active lifestyle. It is a harder alloy than 18kt gold. This results in less scratches and, therefore, less polishing. In comparison to 18kt, which is 75% gold, the 14kt has 58.5% gold. To that end, it is a lighter weight alloy than platinum or 18kt. 14kt gold looks great when it is brushed or polished.

Our designer, Dan Harrison, has been in the jewelry business for over 42 years. In this time he has acquired contacts from all over the world. As a result, Dan is able to acquire some of the more rare gemstones. Some of these gems and cabochons might not be used for weeks, months, or even years until inspiration strikes. Once the material has spoken to him Dan will start the long, arduous design process. Every step of the design and construction process is overseen personally by Mr Harrison.
