I made these earrings day before yesterday. I used 20 g square brass wire to create the ear post as well as the links. I like the antique look of this wire, and thought it went well with the brown coloring of the beads. I used 3mm by 6mm faceted rondel glass beads (bought at Michaels)along the chain, and then a cluster of 3 round 4mm swarovski smoked topaz AB crystals (bought from Fire Mountain Gems) at the end of each earring. The earrings are 2 inches long.
Jewelry is very personal. You have shown your jewelry in a fascinating way. Another good website is angara.com . I often refer to it for it provides information in a manner that even a layman can understand the small detail of diamond and other gemstone jewelry . There are affordable jewelry options that they have and one could also get them customized as they want.
