Pair of Earrings (Parure)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Pair of earrings, Parure. Two long, thin, vertically aligned earrings against a black background. Earrings have multiple spherical clusters of pearls of varying size. Larger clusters are at the bottom of each earring. The clusters are connected by strands of smaller pearls. A single strand of pearls leads to a small cluster at the top of the left earring. The right earring has a thin gold or silver piece attached at the top and appears to have a clasp or post.
