Top it all off with 14K gold filled beads and vibrant vintage Swarovski crystal and you've got a feast for the senses!

A 14K gold filled toggle clasp with ball ends finishes off these two fabulous strands, the shorter of which measures a shade over 20", including the toggle.

The matching dichroic square-ish cabochon earrings are roughly 9/16" with gold-plated post backs.
