Small, Refined Beauty”

Papua Schute, dangle earrings are as pictured with the decorated design contrasted with a dark bachground. The earrings are small, can be notice because og the sterling silver high shine finish. Not flimzy, sturdy. Comfortable to wear. Happy with purchase.

Pretty and petite!”

The craftsmanship is graceful and clean. I will be putting these on french wires as I prefer them over studs. They are elegant and feel substantial. Im hoping for a longer version or multiple pieces connected to make a longer dangle.Thank you for your hard work.
