An asymmetrical pair of multicolored 'Tutti Frutti' earrings in the shape of curving swags, similar to a pair of boots turned outward and comprised of carved emeralds, sapphires, and rubies. Scrolling diamond volutes punctuate each end, while geometric gems and cabochons are irregularly assembled on both pieces. Both earrings feature a round emerald with a diamond in the center, placed near the top. The earring on the viewer's left feature additional gemstones and in particular, the blue sapphire and pinkish red ruby. The latter appears in a somewhat floral shape along the bottom left side of the piece. The earring on the right features additional diamonds cut in an irregular, diagonal aspect as well as a small and especially dark sapphire near the bottom corner. At the bottom of each swag are four rectangular diamonds placed side by side along a slight curve.
