EVA BL132-08 S$55 SOLD

I was tidying up my work space last night before flying off for my short holiday today and came across these flaming carnellians which I had not put away in a box so I decided to use that plus the beads from whatever boxes I had on my table. I picked small freshwater pearls, faceted peridot, carnellian and peach moonstone rondells and hung them all on small oval hoops. Like peaches and cream with a hint of mint. Small drop of 4 cm. All metal components 14k goldfill.
