Blue Shark Post Earrings

Blue Shark Post earrings were inspired by a customer who wanted blue sharks for his wife. Sleek, feminine with just a hint of danger! A standard pair comes with one curvy and one wavy shark.

I wanted to express how absolutely gorgeous this (shark) is, with such attention to detail – L

Blue Sharks

We adore blue sharks. Blues are a type of requiem shark that are oceanic, pelagic, and prefer the deep ocean in temperate and tropical waters.  Beautiful and distinctive looking, they have long slender bodies and long pectoral fins, and are, as their name indicates, a lovely deep blue color. They grow up to 12 ft long, and are one of the fastest sharks in the sea; some estimate up to 60 miles per hour (97 kph).

​Blue sharks are thought to be the most frequently caught shark species. Targeted for their beautiful fins, studies show population declines of up to 80% in some regions since the 1980s. They are now classified as ‘near threatened’. ​
