These earthy dangle earrings feature rectangular Czech glass beads with a faux stone background and smooth aqua blue shapes that appear set in the stone. The shapes are roughly diamond, with the four points blunted and the walls curving inward. The visual effect is that of a mosaic piece; however the beads are entirely made of glass. They have a wonderfully earthy look, which combine best with copper tones rather than silver or gold. Their aqua blue color has a rather peaceful dreamy quality and is more a gentle hue than vibrant one.

These focals are bordered with lovely copper daisy spacers and then white shell round beads. The shell beads at the top are 4mm in size and smaller than those at the bottom, which are 6mm. The larger shell rounds have corrugated copper bead caps. The dangles are finished off with small corrugated copper beads, one at each end, and a wire-wrap at the top.

The ear hooks are copper and come with earnuts to help keep these earrings from slipping off your ears. The pair measures around 2 and 1/8 inches in length. Please see my photos for an illustration of the size alongside a ruler.

This is a very pretty, "elegantly boho" pair of dangles!

The blue glass and faux stone beads (I've come to think of them as "faux mosaics") came from a little bead shop in Bristol, RI. I had to ask what they were made of, because they looked so much like glass inlaid in stone to me. They immediately made me think of ancient Rome and sunny villas beside the Adriatic or Mediterranean. The shell beads thus seemed a perfect accompaniment! :)
