These beads are about as bright blue as you can get and with this design the beads dance, move and catch the light. They are by Happy Bird Glass and are from a set called "Royal Accents." The glass beads are accented with tiny round sterling silver beads and all the findings and ear wires are sterling silver. The secure leverback ear wires are decorated by a fleur de lys motif. The drop--from the top of the ring to the bottom of the little silver beads is about 3/4" (19 mm) and the individual beads measure about 1/4" (6 mm) x 5/16" (9 mm).
