“HOMESICK?” Turquoise Gemstone Dangle Earrings | GL #1
The Story & Cultural Heritage
The nomadic lands of Central Asia and Eurasia are covered with endless green grasslands, meeting the infinite blue sky—a connection embodied by this natural turquoise stone.
This piece is inspired by bold, sharp silhouettes evoking the gear of ancient warriors. Engraved motifs trace back to 13th-century Mamluk-Turkic leaf ornamentations, from an era when elite Turkic warriors of the Eurasian steppes crossed into those lands and established the Mamluk Sultanate. As ALGUZZ embodies the warrior mindset in a modern world, delicately engraved within these leaf patterns lies Umay Ana—the ancient Central Asian goddess of creation, life, and new beginnings.

Care Guide
Daily Care & Wear
Your piece is crafted from high-quality solid brass and finished with premium Rhodium plating and protective coating. To preserve its original shine and protect the finish over time, we recommend the following care:
Keep It Dry: Avoid direct contact with water, perfume, lotions, and harsh chemicals.
Store with Care: Store your jewelry in its original pouch or a dry, airtight box when not in use.
Clean Gently: Wipe gently with a soft micro-fiber or cotton cloth after wearing. Do not use chemical polished cloths or abrasive cleaners.
Wear Last: Put your jewelry on as the final touch after getting ready.
Post-Wear & Sweat Care
Clean After Wear: After contact with sweat or skin oils, gently wipe your piece with a soft micro-fiber cloth to remove surface residue before storing.
Removing Dried Residue: If sweat or buildup has dried on the surface, slightly dampen one corner of the micro-fiber cloth with water and wipe gently. Immediately follow up with the dry side of the cloth to ensure the piece is completely dry.
Safe Storage: Always place your dry accessory back inside its dedicated pouch to protect the finish from moisture and air exposure.
To preserve the surface quality and luster of your jewelry, please use separate micro-fiber (lens) cloths for your rhodium-plated and silver-plated pieces. Never use a cloth previously used on silver or oxidized items on your rhodium-plated jewelry.
WEAR THIS PIECE IN YOUR GOOD DAYS, IN YOUR BAD DAYS—WHEN YOU NEED LIGHT, WHEN YOU NEED POWER, WHEN YOU WANT TO LAUGH, AND WHEN YOU HAVE TO BE LOUD.
