These earrings are sterling silver, with a textured side separated from a shiny silver side by a soldered squiggle of wire. They are suspended by a loop from sterling handmade ear wires, and sport a 6mm (approx.) grey freshwater pearl dangling from the tip. Sorry for the poor quality of the photos. I just couldn't get a good shot of these! I'll try again, but meanwhile, pleases be aware that the earring on the left is closer to the true color of the actual earrings (oxidized silver). The earring on the right is showing colored reflections that are not true to color. One-of-a-kind, signed and dated by the artist.
