Chandelier earrings with a captivating cascade of iridescent beads. Tiers of clear glass beads with an aurora borealis finish tumble from rhinestone-set locking ear wires.

A glamorous example of 20th-Century costume jewelry. Circa 1960.
The iridescent aurora borealis finish was popular in the mid-20th Century. Named for the fabulous light display of the Northern Hemisphere's night sky.
