These earrings are perfect to wear for dressier occasions. I have received many compliments on them and have removed them when friends ask to look at them more closely. Everyone admires the fine craftsmanship.
looks more flat than hammered...the hammering is subtle. beautiful craftsmanship.
Stone looks faceted, and with more color variety in the photo, it is not. A deep blue cabochon is more like it.
That being said, it is quite pretty and fits perfectly!
