The tiny crystal pendants are vintage Swarovski crystal disks with radiating facets.
I've wired seven of them with some small oval barely peach-coloured freshwater pearls; some even smaller white oval freshwater pearls; and some downright tiny gold-plate round beads.
Between the pendants' aurora boreale finish and the ease of movement in the way they're attached, they sparkle like shooting stars!
The strand is about 18 inches long, and closes with a goldplate safety clasp.
The pendants ending 1/2 inch below that.
I am quite taken with the combination of the ultra-pastel peach pearls and the rich Madeira topaz of the crystal pendants, so that's what I used in the earrings.
Each dangles about 1-3/8 inches from the top of its 14kt gold fill French hook.
Naturally, this lovely set is from SPARKLE PLENTY.
