These Tessa Blazey 'Sukie' studs are inspired by the character played by Michelle Pfeiffer in the 1987 film 'The Witches of Eastwick'.
With a beautiful carved texture, the six claw studs express a warm glow that pairs beautifully with the stones. The tips of the claws are polished while the rest of the setting has a matte finish. The stones are Australian parti sapphires, in pops of light green.
Complete with 9ct yellow gold earring posts and butterfly backs.
Dimensions: 6mm x 4mm
