Hand-Painted Aqua and Opal Cabochon "Museum" Earrings

These doorknocker-style earrings remind me of the ancient Etruscan reproduction jewelry that were popular in New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art gift shop when I was a girl. I think they have a very upscale look without being flashy or sparkly. Great daytime/office earrings that will continue to look good later in the day, whether you're going out to dinner or to a concert or the theatre.

I hand painted the clip back vintage gold-plated castings, stippling the paint to give an aged look. The vintage glass opal cabochons have much more of a rainbow sparkle to them in person.

These measure approximately 2" long.

$68.00 the pair.
