content: Pair of green bead and rhinestone chandelier earrings worn by Ophelia DeVore. At the top of each earring is a metal hook for attaching through the pierced ear. Below it is a large round faceted green bead that sits atop a row of faceted clear rhinestones with flat tops. These sit above a convex filigree metal round disc. Below the center of the disc is a small ball covered in small clear rhinestones with a chain dangling from it that ends in a large ball covered in small clear rhinestones. Hanging from the rim of the disc are five (5) medium sized balls covered in small clear rhinestones with a tear drop shaped green faceted bead hanging from them. The green beads are shorter than the large ball hanging from the chain at the bottom center of the disc.
