Eighteen-karat gold over sterling silver circle filigree earrings measuring approximately 1.83 inches long by 1.13 inches wide with lever-back backings - the Turkish artisan filigree earring in the most geometrically pure form. The circle is the fundamental shape in filigree tradition - a perfect disc of wire-twist lacework where the geometric simplicity of the outline contrasts with the intricate complexity of the internal filigree pattern. At 1.83 by 1.13 inches, the circles have real presence. Lever-back backings.
