Balance Earrings - Kate Alterio
The Balance Earrings are made from a smooth and fluid sterling silver element that is punctuated by two flush set white diamonds that swings gently from a simple silver hook. These earrings are part of a collection by Kate Alterio called 'The Magic and the Mundane' which was an exploration of the human experience.
These earrings measure approximately 43mm from the top of the hook to the bottom of the earring and are approximately 19mm wide.
