Embodying the essence of motion, the Alligator Malachite Vertebrae Bite Earring  captures the allure of the alligator's agile spine. The 18K yellow gold structure is hand-crafted, articulating the vertebrae's seamless contours. Malachite forms the body, punctuated by Tsavorite eyes, lending a lifelike vibrancy. This earring clasps with a unique bite mechanism—a nod to the alligator’s powerful jaws and the tail moves delicately, a testament to meticulous craftsmanship. This versatile piece can also transform into a pendant, offering a dual wearability that celebrates both form and movement.
