Beautiful! Great match for the blue lady necklace!
These earrings are just lovely! From a sterling silver hook dangles a square shaped lapis lazuli bead. From the bead dangles a lapis lazuli teardrop. The earrings are around .5 inches wide and .2 inches deep. They’re very well-made! They coordinate beautifully with the blue Lady necklace by the same artisan!
