Hello experts. I have this gorgeous set with colorful dangling AB crystals that are pin set on the earrings and jump rings on the necklace. If it's not Juliana any idea of the maker is truly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

I don't believe that this set is Juliana nor made by D&E at all. I have never seen these beaded kidney shaped earrings with these types of backs attributed to D&E.
You can look here to see if they have been identified as D&E:
You can also look here at the NOT D&E items as well:

Here is a great site to take a look at some of the known D&E attributes:

Hope this helps you.

Thank you so much for the informative links. I've seen the earring back styles before but can't remember who they're attributed to so I'm hoping someone may recognize it. It's such a nice set, I'm pretty sure it's a well known designer. Thanks again.

I don't know if you know that the shape of your earrings is called kidney, for obvious reasons. There were any number of designers and manufactures that made these beautiful pieces. These types of earring backings were often used by a variety of makers. I have seen these types of earrings signed by a number of designers, West Germany, Czech, and Japan.
