Wow, those are some huge and lustrous baroques! I'd love to see them dangle. Hopefully someone will take a photo of one on your ear for us to gaze at with envy... Congratulations
Those are gorgeous! Yes, I agree with Blaire, we want a photo of them dangling---we have had recent discussions on other threads about wire wrapping pearls, too!
Sorry, i had to cut out all the wrinkly bits lol, The actual pearls are about 17.4mm x about 8mm tapering to about 4mm.
They are post and butterfly but I think I'll ask the jeweller if he can change the to continental type hooks, as I find the butterflies a bit fiddly. Funny how once you need reading glasses your fingers don't work as well any more, even when its doing up clasps and you do it by feel anyway.
That sounds like the basic leverback. A great way to go! Comfortable, secure, and doesn't take away from the style of the dangle. Overall they are terrific!
