Overview
A pair of gold-tone costume jewelry half-hoop earrings channel- and prong-set with vibrant aqua blue rectangular baguette glass rhinestones. The pierced post construction with sculpted scroll terminals showcases the bold architectural color blocking typical of mid-to-late 20th-century statement fashion jewelry.
Story
