Buyer's premium:

This lot comprises a pair of wide, hollow clip-on earrings, exhibiting a style consistent with the American Retro period (circa 1940s). The pieces are constructed of yellow metal, appearing to have a gold-toned finish. The rounded, wide profile of each earring is heavily decorated with deep, scrolling foliate and floral engravings. These engravings are deliberately contrasted, appearing brighter or silver-white against the warm yellow background, suggesting a two-tone effect or chemical contrasting used to highlight the intricate metalwork. The earrings utilize a hinged, non-pierced clip-on backing mechanism. No hallmarks or maker’s marks are visible upon inspection.
Row 1: 2 earrings. Total count: 2 earrings.
