Rows of round pearl-look beads cover each small gold-tone heart, three quarters of an inch across, so they sit close and neat at the ear. They are a pretty fit for Valentine's Day and just as welcome the rest of the year.

These COCO + CARMEN earrings go with a soft cardigan as easily as a dress for a family dinner, and the soft cream of the beads suits a jewelry box all year, long after the cards and chocolates are put away.
