Chain-linked drop earrings in warm 18K yellow gold over sterling silver represent the chain jewelry trend translated into earring form: the same architectural elongated link aesthetic that has defined necklace and bracelet design appears here at the ear, with 1.72 carats of round cubic zirconia providing sparkle at intervals or at the terminus of the drop. The combination of chain structure and cubic zirconia brilliance creates a drop earring with more visual complexity than either element alone would provide - the gold chain catches light along its length while the cubic zirconia adds concentrated sparkle at specific points. An earring that participates in the chain trend from the contemporary fine jewelry angle.
