Within You Earrings with Gold - Kate Alterio

The Within You Earrings feature solid 9ct yellow gold and sterling silver components that sit snugly together, but will also twist gently on the silver earwire. These earrings measure approximately 29mm from the top of the hook to the bottom of the earring and are approximately 11mm wide.

These earrings are part of a collection called 'Power and Illusion', which considers how perception dictates how we see ourselves, others and the world around us.
