This is a really beautiful gold and abalone shell earring and pendant necklace set. I made the necklace using 18k gold plated ball and link chain that has pretty end pieces and a 14k gold plated clasp. The pendant is a diamond shaped, gold wire wrapped abalone shell. The earrings I made using 18k gold plated circle shaped posts. From each are gold wire wrapped, diamond shaped abalone shells. The connecting rings are 24k gold. Unfortunately, the pictures just don't do them justice.
