Twelve-millimeter peacock-colored shell pearl simulants in a dangle setting in rhodium over sterling silver - bold, iridescent, and completely contemporary in the way they approach the pearl aesthetic. The peacock coloring - a shifting blue-green-purple iridescence - is the opposite of traditional pearl formality, making these earrings a fashion-forward pearl statement rather than a classic one. At 1 1/8 inches long by 1/2 inch wide with fish hook backs, they have real movement and presence. The large 12mm size falls into the statement pearl category that is driving the pearl trend right now - not delicate, not grandmother's pearls, but bold and intentional. For those who want their pearl earrings to start a conversation.
