These are really some extraordinary earrings. The center of the flower stands out about 1/4" and is covered with pavé-set rhinestones. Many of the stones are also bead set. The petals of the flowers are teardrop-shaped amethysts (possibly real) and the earrings are rhodium plated. I can't believe they are not signed, but after serious looking I have been unable to find a mark. The earrings have a 1-3/4" diameter and are fairly heavy. However, the clips hold them on securely. If you purchase these, they will likely become one of your favorite pairs of earrings.
