Amethyst Briolette and Filigree Copper Earrings

Dark amethyst briolettes enhance copper filigree components in these earrings that have an old elegance to them. While they are fairly long, close to 3 inches in length, the filigrees makes them super light and easy to wear. You won't even know you have these on.

*4 Copper dapped square filigree components
2 - 4mm Copper jump rings
2 - 7x8mm Amethyst faced briolette beads
10 inches of 24-gauge dead-soft copper wire
4 inches of 21-gauge dead-soft copper wire
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
Round-nosed pliers
Nylon-nosed pliers

*These filigree components came from Ornamentea.com.
