These 2.5" long earrings are made of natural color Chinese fresh water pearls.. the top pearls measure approximately 1"x1.25" and the bottom drop is 8x12mm. The pearls have metallic luster and the contrast in texture between the two pearls is very satisfying. As a pair these weigh only 8 grams! They are very light weight in comparison to their size!
