Peridot Briolettes and Contrasting Silvers

I made a series of this style of earrings a few weeks ago, each pair using a different bead at the bottom.  This particular pair features beautiful kiwi green peridot briolettes.  The chain is argentium silver, highly tarnish resistant.  Both the wire wrapping the briolette and the earwire are oxidized sterling silver.  I really like the contrast between the dark and bright silvers.  Maybe next time I'll use some gold filled chain instead of the argentium for a completely different look.  Hmmmm ...
