These are estate earrings that were custom made for the previous owner back in the 1990s. I was told she already had the pearls from a family inheritance of a brooch. She traded the gold to have these made for her. She loved wearing gold but preferred it not being super shiny, so her jeweler custom made these for her. The darkened 14K yellow gold multiple leaf shaped settings are textured and purposely oxidized. The pearls are genuine with nice reflective luster. These measure about 3/4" x 1/2" and weigh 4.3 grams. Only the butterfly clutches are marked 14k. The earrings are not marked but test as 14k as well. Pearls measure a little over 6mm each. Beautiful and one of a kind. I've sold gold here for over 20 years, check my feedback. I have a very good reputation for accuracy. Please view my other listings.
