  • 14k Gold Dangle Earrings with White Akoya Pearls
    By Martha Seely
    Located in Carlisle, MA
    These pearl earrings are the new power pearls - definitely NOT your grandmother's pearls. They are Medium Spiral Dangle Earrings from the Orbit collection in 14k spirals with a 20 gauge ear wire and a lustrous, 7-8.5mm Akoya pearl. The earrings hang 2". The double-spiral is about 1" tall by 3/4" wide. And because of the way it is made, the spirals move, creating a different earring depending on movements. They are lightweight and elegant - a non-traditional way to wear a beautiful pearl. This design is wearable with almost every outfit - except the gym and the most fancy events. I even wear them with my blue jeans, when I run to the grocery store. These are simple and without any added diamonds, but diamonds can be added. These earrings are hand finished and fabricated. Standard for these is a white Akoya...
