The vintage 8mm amethyst Swarovski crystal beads have a 24 kt gold half coat, and are regally topped with gold-clad crystal rhinestone studded crowns.The long gold tone French wire (a thin wire coil) is punctuated with a pair of 4mm Swarovski amethyst bicone beads, and another decorates the 14 kt gold fill ear wire.Each earring dangles about 3" from the top of its French hook to the bottom of the large crystal.This Oriental treasure doesn't cost a king's ransom, either!
