Designed with dimensional crystal work, luminous faux pearl elements, and a bold black crystal center, they have that strong boutique presence that reads both glamorous and collectible. The elongated teardrop pearl dangle gives them beautiful movement, while the layered arrangement of navette, pear, and rounded stones creates a striking floral burst effect.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThese earrings are designed in a silver-tone setting with a rich mix of clear faceted crystals and glossy faux pearls. At the center of each earring sits a faceted black crystal framed by a crystal-set rondelle-style border, creating a bold focal point against the icy brilliance of the surrounding stones. Above and around the center, Nelly layered pear-shaped and marquise-cut crystals in a three-dimensional arrangement, accented by pearlized teardrop forms that soften the structure and give the design a more couture, romantic finish. Suspended below is a substantial faux pearl teardrop drop, adding length, movement, and that unmistakable 1980s statement silhouette.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThese are signed Nelly and finished with silver-tone clip backs.
