These are lovely earrings and look good with greying hair (!) and a black top. I don't see any gold on them. They are about an inch long and the pearl is about a third of an inch wide. They are quite solid and the clasp looks sturdy.
These are the most gorgeous pair of earrings I own. The words elegant and exquisite are the best words to use to describe these earrings. To be made by hand is awesome! So glad I purchased these.
