These earrings remind me of a cross between old fashioned art deco wallpaper and the entrance to 120 Wall Street.  The top bead consists of black Czech glass with grooved gold etchings giving it a fan or shell appearance.   Dangling from the top component is a beautiful 18 mm antique gold glass tear drop bead.  The earrings are approximately 2 and 3/4  inches in length and are finished with antique gold toned (nickel-free) lever back ear wires.
