{"product_id":"natural-pearl-drop-earrings-romanesque","title":"Natural Pearl Romanesque Drop Earrings - \"Mississippi Rose Romanesque\"","description":"\u003carticle\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGraceful and undeniably romantic, these earrings evoke the elegance of heirloom jewelry passed down through generations. Luminous rosebud freshwater pearls set in a \u003cstrong\u003eyellow gold bezel\u003c\/strong\u003e, ringed by an oxidized sterling silver halo and four petite diamond accents at the cardinal points that catch the light like tiny stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fine chain connects the two different pearls, letting the wing pearl sway with real movement. Designed by \u003cstrong\u003eMichael Jenson\u003c\/strong\u003e as a true left and right pair, the earrings play with a bit of asymmetry on purpose, which only adds to the sense that these were made by hand. Because the Mississippi wing pearls were formed naturally, no two look quite alike, so the pair you receive will have its own particular character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole effect lands somewhere between old-world and current, textured silver and warm gold, structured stud and loose, swinging pearl. It's a good fit for someone who wants a piece with a bit of whimsy and craft behind it, whether that's a gift for a person who already loves unusual jewelry or a pair you're picking out for yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cu\u003eCold Hard Facts:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003emetals: oxidized sterling silver + 22K gold\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003egems:\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e(2) natural Mississippi River wing pearls\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e(2) rosebud freshwater pearls\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e(8) natural diamonds, 0.08ctw\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003ewidth: approx. 1\/2\" at widest point\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003elength: 2\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eearring type: 18K gold friction posts with sterling silver extra-large (9mm) friction backs\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the color I see on my screen match the earrings in person?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePearls carry natural iridescence that shifts a bit depending on the light, and the gold and oxidized silver settings can read slightly warmer or cooler depending on your screen. Monitor settings, video cards, and browsers can all affect color slightly, so the earrings you receive may look a bit different than what you see here. By purchasing, you're acknowledging that possibility.

Mississippi River wing pearls are naturally formed, so each one shows its own shape and surface character.
