These earrings are part of the Napier Crystal Basics Collection of 1992. They feature beautiful Swarovski navettes flanked by brilliant circ-cut stones. Napier marked the earrings in two places—both on the arm of the clip and the back of the clip. The earrings are also conveniently marked with an “L” or “R” to ease questions about proper wearer placement. Not all earrings in the Napier line had left or right markings.from The Napier Book https://ift.tt/3cnbS9h
