This is a beautiful pair of 18 Karat Gold earrings with two small gemstones, one light blue and one pale orange. They are for pierced ears. The picture does not do these earrings justice. They are approximately 1 1/2" in circumference and a little more than 1/4" wide. This jewelry is nickel free and will never tarnish. Is it solid gold? No. Is it plated gold? No. There are three heavy layers of 18 Karat Gold. It is sold in fine jewelry store all over the world and I am offering it to you at a fraction of their price.
