The Gem on a Stem collection is a line of minimalist earrings handcrafted by The Swanky Dale in Ball Ground, Georgia, each one a single natural gemstone set on a hand-forged copper stem with hypoallergenic titanium ear wires. Snowflake obsidian, howlite, amazonite, zebra jasper, each stone chosen for its natural character and paired with warm hammered copper for a combination that's simple, striking, and genuinely handmade. Safe for sensitive ears, lightweight enough for all-day wear, and under $40 across the whole line.
