The Story:
French jewelry is often considered the best of the best and I go to a lot of trouble to travel to Paris to search out and hand-pick rare, unusual and fine French jewelry. When I saw these earrings, I 'had' to have them as they are so original and gorgeous on the ear. To my surprise, they are probably not French at all, as evidenced by the 14k gold. Goes to show that there is beautiful jewelry made everywhere.
