Incredible, Big and Chunky, Handcrafted Vintage Sterling Silver Open Modernist Hoop with Ball Detail Pierced Earrings.
Each earring face measures just over approximately 1/2 of an inch, or about 13 millimeters, wide, by about 1 and 1/16 inches for one earring, and about 1 inch, or roughly 25.4 millimeters, high for the other, and about 1 inch for one earring, and approximately 15/16 of an inch for the other, from front to back. (Included is a US Quarter in the photographs, for the measurement-challenged and ruler-averse.) The interior edge of each earring is stamped, "925", unsigned. The mismatched clutches are stamped, "St. Sil", and, "925", respectively. Combined weight is approximately 13.7 grams.
These are vintage earrings, which have been worn and enjoyed. They will have the expected surface scratches and dings to the silver. These are handmade and will not be perfectly symmetrical, nor perfect in any other sense. Neither post is straight, but both remain wearable. The clutches are mismatched, but both Sterling. The buyer may prefer to replace them with larger comfort-style clutches to better support the weight of these large earrings. Hand polished, but there will likely be further tarnish to remove.
A very bold, sophisticated pair of vintage handmade modernist Sterling silver hoop earrings. Unusual, with great detail. These will be noticed!
