Sterling Silver Black Simulated Shell Pearl and Cubic Zirconia Lever Back Earrings (8mm)

Get a luxury look for less with these shell pearl drop earrings. The round shell pearls have a silvery black color and a beautiful shine. They are stationed on sterling silver leverback wires and accented with sparkling rounds of cubic zirconia. Rhodium overlay gives the silver a bright, hypoallergenic, and tarnish-resistant finish.

Shell pearls are man-made simulated pearls created from organic materials. They are called “shell pearls” because each pearl nucleus bead is made from an actual shell of a clam.  Many layers of pearl essence, made from crushed oyster shell, are applied until a lovely pearl luster is created.

Because they employ a shell nucleus and repeated layers of coating, shell pearls have a similar weight and feel, and the same deep luster found in excellent quality genuine pearls, at a fraction of the price.
