Eighteen silver hoop earrings form a horizontal row, their surfaces muted and textured. Each hoop features three vertically stacked flowers consisting of raised, rounded centers and wire loop petals. A thin wire coil wraps around the metal near the closure at the base of each piece. These repeating floral ornaments create a rhythmic pattern across the collection, emphasizing the uniform craftsmanship and delicate detailing of the silver set.
