These red glass earrings are elegant & eye-catching, classic & fresh at the same time. Made of glass beads securely encased in hand crocheted wire settings. The wire is permanently colored silver plated copper. You’ll have to select your ear wire option before checkout. Vermeil is gold plated sterling silver. “Gold-filled” means a thicker coat of gold over a base metal. The 14kt gold-filled hooks I offer have a tiny hallmark between the tip & the curve of the hook. You won’t be able to read it without a magnifying glass but you can feel it with your finger. All other options are made of non-precious metals (which is reflected in the price).
