Handcrafted vintage sterling silver chandelier earrings with 13 faceted gemstones in each earring. Bright peridot studs lead to blue iolite, pear-shaped garnets, and round amethysts, finished with three swinging gemstone drops. The outer drops are topaz, the center is garnet. Individual bezel settings outline the colorful arrangement.
The open-backed settings let light pass through the gemstones, bringing out their vivid colors. Long hair may shade the stones and deepen their appearance, while wearing the hair swept up allows more light through.
