I made these using rose gold plated 925 sterling silver, yellow gold plated 925 sterling silver & 925 sterling silver with tiny crystal ear wire hook earrings. From each earring hangs an AAA grade 8mm purple pearl with a tiny rose gold, yellow gold or silver bead. They hang from rose gold plated, 18k gold plated and 925 sterling silver plated pins. Absolutely stunning! * Your purchase will arrive in pretty packaging CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR PEARLS: To keep pearls radiant, follow the "last on, first off" ruleāput them on after makeup and perfume to avoid chemical damage. Gently wipe them with a soft cloth after each wear to remove oils and perspiration. Store them separately in soft, breathable pouches to prevent scratches and dehydration.
