These 2” long drop earrings are composed of amethyst nuggets individually attached to chain and and a swinging end drop of an 11mm stone dyed a deep purple. I believe the metal is a plated stainless steel. Excellent vintage condition. Shipping is free! I only sell to USA buyers and offer free USPS First Class shipping in the USA for my customers. My parameters for mailing your purchase are 3 to 5 business days. I will usually be able to mail much sooner, but sometimes I am away from home searching for items. If you would like to purchase USPS Insurance, please include the cost in your payment and let me know you've paid for insurance right away.
