Big, Beautiful, Unusual, Intricately Handcrafted Vintage Sterling Silver Byzantine Knot Design Drop Dangle Pierced Earrings.
Each earring measures just over approximately 1 and 1/4 inches, or about 32 millimeters, high, by about about 1/2 of an inch, or approximately 12.7 millimeters, wide and from front to back. (Included find a US Quarter in the photographs, for the measurement-challenged and ruler-averse.) Each is stamped, "925", on the underside of the post, stamped, "925", again on on each clutch, signed only with a citrus slice makers mark on the clutches. Combined weight is healthy, at approximately 13.04 grams.
These are vintage earrings, which have been worn and enjoyed. They will have the expected light surface scratches and possibly a few tiny dings to the silver from normal wear. The posts appear to be pretty straight. The clutches both hold securely. Hand polished, but they may have missed some tarnish within the intricate knots/rings.
A striking and boldly stylish pair of vintage artisan Sterling silver Byzantine knot dangle earrings. Great size and profile with strong, weighty depth of design.
