These one-of-a-kind earrings hold their OWN.. any simple outfit will do (no need to buy a new dress for these earrings). The gently and naturally polished pieces of abalone shell are SO beautiful with their vivid greens and blues and the flashes as their worn. The light pink natural color fresh water pearls dangling underneath are a sweet color balance. The ear wires are gold fill, let us know at the time of purchase if you'd prefer solid gold. The earrings are just over 3" long as a pair they weigh 13 grams. ID#KDE14063/KDJ1600/6/20/24
