Modern Chandies Pearls meant to evoke the delicacyDesigned as a pair of simply elegant girandole, or chandelier earrings, each centering upon an oval cut pink tourmaline, suspending three pale pink freshwater cultured pearls, further accented with diamonds, from a round cultured pearl. Mounted in platinum and entirely handmade. Inspired by a style which was popular throughout the nineteenth century.
