These gorgeous vintage sterling silver earrings are set with ethereal natural moonstones that have beautiful blue adularescence shimmering through each and every one of them.
Finely hand-crafted in an Art Nouveau style these earrings are far from being mass produced. Delicate and feminine the 5mm moonstones are mounted in "spectacle" settings that allow light through the back of the stones to enhance the flashes of blue, curvy silver scrolls accented in tiny beads add to the lovely decoration.
Elegant silver hooks with bead accents that echo the design of the drops complete these extremely pretty moonstone earrings that have lovely movement when worn.
