Dainty and Romantic earrings

These intricate Victorian style romantic earrings are entirely hand-coiled and weaved using different gauges of Sterling and Fine Silver wire. First, oval frames are formed and hammered for strength, then hair thin wire is finely coiled around it, curled into graceful swirls and loops, and tiny Aquamarine, Peridot and oxidized Silver beads are weaved within. Rich purple smooth Amethyst briolettes are hanging bellow and all Silver is antiqued for a vintage look. Earrings are 2 1/2" long from top of ear-wires to bottom of Amethyst briolettes and are 1 1/2" wide.
