So did I - my first thought was: Oh teeth, how 'special' (I thought something else) for earrings.... I have to confess, that I'm not particularly fond of such irregular pearls to be worn as a pair. Something else when they are included in, for an example, a pendant or a brooch. But as earrings, no I don't like it (fully aware that this doesn't matter ).
Looking at the magnificient picture of The Duchess of Teck, one instantly recognizes, where Queen Mary has her love for big (and many) jewels from .
