Large Girandole Filigree and Pearl Earrings

These large, bold earrings were inspired by the huge earrings that become popular in the 1820s because of the large hairstyles that were in fashion during these decades.  Big hair requires big earrings!

This classic girandole-style is made with lightweight filigree dangles and a central glass pearl. 

They measure just over 2" long
