Elegant Paula Crevoshay 18k Gold Rose Pearl Pink Spinel Drop Dangle Earrings
Regular price
$3,360.00
Presented is a gorgeous pair of 18 karat gold, pearl, and pink spinel earrings by jewelry designer Paula Crevoshay. Each earring is done in a dangle or drop form, with a rosy pink pearl supporting a round cut pink spinel and elongated freshwater pearl drop. The pink faceted stones have a wonderful sparkle to them, and complement the warm golden pink of the pearls beautifully. The pearls measure about 8.6 millimeters in diameter, while the pink spinel stones measure about 4.6 millimeters in diameter. The pink spinels are real, natural mined from the ground stones, verified by our gemologist. These are unique, hand chosen stones, as you'd expect from a designer with Paula Crevoshay's stated commitment to integrity and artistic vision. These earrings are made in an antiquities inspired style, with granulated beadwork decorating the settings of the round pearl and round spinel, reminiscent of Etruscan Revival pieces. The earrings have butterfly style backs with posts for wear with pierced ears.
