Fiziksel açıklama
Circular silver wire earrings with a semi-circular loop rising from a dragon's mouth on the right hand side and terminating on the other side with a small loop which would have be fastened with the thread to the oval loop emanating from another dragon's mouth. The lower half of each earring has a row of hollow silver balls connected by silver flanges which bisect each ball which in turn are attached to the flattened lower part of the ring. A scalloped-edged sheet of silver fills the lower part of the circle and is decorated with a number of fire-gilded silver sheet appliqués in various shapes, which have been stamped ina matrix.
