Tourmalines are one of my favorite stones. They come in so many shades and they are sparkly and just plain gorgeous! Each earring has three faceted briolettes in shades of green and pink. They dangle from gold-plated rings, which in turn dangle from simple gold-plated earwires. (Don't worry about the plating - I have used these components often and they have never tarnished or turned colors.) These earrings are very feminine and pretty. The length from the top of the earwire to the bottom of the stones is about 1 1/4 inches. Thanks for visiting my shop! See less
