Freshwater Pearl Cage Drop Earrings | 9ct Yellow Gold

A freshwater pearl held in a twisted gold cage on each drop, hung from shepherd's hooks in 9ct yellow gold.

Each earring holds a single 6mm freshwater pearl inside an open, spiralling gold cage, so the pearl sits framed by the twist of gold rather than fixed flat. They hang from simple shepherd's hooks and swing gently as you move.

About freshwater pearls

Freshwater pearls are grown in mussels rather than mined, which gives each one its own soft lustre and gently individual shape. Pearls are softer than gemstones, so they're best kept away from perfume, hairspray and knocks, and wiped gently after wear. Cared for, they last for generations.
