Pear Pearl Pendant Earrings

These pear-shaped pearls are also often referred to as Oriental or Baroque pearls, although "Oriental" is an archaic name for them, and "Baroque" most often refers to misshapen pearls that are not shaped like pears. This is a selection of similar pear pearl pendant earrings:
