Legolas Greenleaf Earrings
These were named for exactly what they felt like the moment they came together — forest, sea, and that strange pull between the two.
The long drops are opalized fossilized wood opal, and the coloring in them is what made the whole piece happen. They look like shoreline from above — ocean blue meeting warm earth, with that unmistakable sense of land giving way to sea. Suspended above them are hand-carved peridot leaves, with small Ethiopian opals tucked alongside like flashes of light through the trees.
They’re mirror-image set, which makes them feel especially intentional and alive, and the drops are built to move — turning just enough to catch light and reveal the silver swirl hidden on the back. It’s a small detail, but one that makes the earrings feel finished from every angle.
There’s a quote Galadriel gives Legolas that always stayed with me:
“Legolas Greenleaf, long under tree,
In joy thou hast lived, beware of the Sea!
If thou hearest the cry of the gull on the shore,
Thy heart shall then rest in the forest no more.”
That’s the feeling here.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To clean your Mettle by Abby pieces, simply use a soft toothbrush in warm, mild soapy water. This will help remove dirt and oil from the gemstones and make them shine again, as well as keep the silver and gold looking bright and clean.
To polish silver Mettle by Abby pieces, simply buff with a silver polishing cloth. If you really want to give it a shining, you can use a silver polishing cream and then rinse it with water when done.
