These hanging teardrop-shaped earrings are made from .999 fine silver and embellished with moonstones. The post ear wire and backs are sterling silver. The silver surface has been textured with a pattern on the front and the back. They have been blackened to show the detail of the depth of the patterns used. The areas where the 5mm moonstones are set painted with blue oil paint to radiate through the stones. Behind each stone is a solid fine silver semi-orb. Each earring measures 24mm. in length and weigh 3.7 grams each, making them an excellent choice for those who are sensitive to heavy earrings.
