These earrings start with a matched pair of stunning genuine freshwater pearls. They each dangle on custom 14K settings from a line of 3 little pave diamonds, which have been set into solid 14K gold hooks. My favorite thing about these earrings is the way the diamonds and pearls complement and contrast with each other - the large pearls look even more creamy smooth and luminous next to the tiny glittering diamonds. It's a lovely marriage and a perfect balance. The pearls are 9mm genuine, natural freshwater pearls, with 4pts of diamond per earring. Made from solid 14K white gold.

Recycled metal, in this case, is gold and silver that has been reclaimed from jewelry that is at the end of its useful life OR from metal that is left over from the silversmithing process (everything from tiny silver dust to excess wire). Recycled metals reduce the impact of mining while preserving the quality of your jewelry. Recycled metal does not mean that it is inferior in any way - it's not plated, a lower karat quality, or hollow. Exactly the same, just cleaner and more ethical.
