Katerina Makriyianni blue and gold tone pleated teardrop earrings

These blue and gold tone Katerina Makriyianni pleated teardrop earrings have been created with sterling silver and silk. Suitable for pierced ears, this pair feature a hook fastening. Adorning one's ears is an ancient tradition and has been in vogue for centuries, as according to Sextus Empiricus, 'Plato, quite decadently, wore an earring when young.' Perhaps these Katerina Makriyianni earrings are like the philosopher's stone (fashion's answer to remaining forever young).
