Carved Mysore Ruby and Japanese Lake Biwa baroque pearl Earrings. j-erbd181

A superb pair of pearl earrings featuring genuine vintage Mysore carved rubies and  Japanese Lake Biwa baroque freshwater pearls. The vintage Mysore barrel shaped rubies have been intricately carved in India. The pearls have been handpicked for their shape, color and amazing nacre and iridescence.  Modern freshwater pearls are often termed Biwa pearls but these are the genuine article. They were purchased by a dealer in Japan in the 1970's. A truly one of a kind pair of earrings to grace any any outfit from a wedding dress to a jean jacket. Definitely worth a splurge. Assembled with sterling silver wire and sterling ear wires. 1 1/4" inches in length including ear wire.
