Integration of Opposites Earrings - Kate Alterio

The Integration of Opposite Earrings feature a silver quatrefoil element above a freshwater white pearl encased snugly within a solid silver circle. These earrings are part of a collection called 'Still Point Between Worlds' and contrast form, material and colour beautifully. 

These earrings measure approximately 42mm from the top of the hook to the bottom of the earring and are 12mm at the widest point.
