A very unique and large pair of exquisitely-worked gold earrings in the form of two amphoras, standing on square bases, rounded, gently-curving bodies, ear-shaped handles with faux-braided details, and large suspension loops at the top. Mounted to a pair of 14-karat yellow gold hoops with 32 round .0075-ct. white diamonds (I1 clarity/G, H color; .24CTW/pair). The hoops can also be worn on their own by removing the pendants, making two fabulous and versatile looks.
