Description: Exotic jeweled antique earrings: ~ High end Chinese export pieces and date to the late 1800's or early 1900's ~ They are hand made from silver of unmarked grade with a gold plating so thick and fine that they test to be solid 14k gold - although I question that and am listing them as silver due to the "SILVER" mark on the earring clips ~ Feature three stacked east west set glowing glassy orange cabochon gemstones ~ The gems test to be nephrite. Fine grade with a warm internal glow ~ Curved profile ~ Very fine gauged applied designs include twisted rope borders and Etruscan style balls ~ Clip on backs so most anyone should be able to wear these - pierced ears or not ~ Comes in the original box that is topped with a classic oriental or asian pattern - feels like it could be silk on the outside and has the look of grosgrain satin on the off white inside. It has some old hand written numbers on the bottom. Very minor wear and discoloration on the box only and earring are in great vintage condition with no damage or quirks to mention. Rich original old patina. A rare find in an excellent state of preservationReady and waiting for your ears, collection, or gift giving - you will love these! *MEASUREMENTS: Earrings are each aprox 13/16" long x 7/16" wide (width is including the little ball decorations protruding) - orange cabochons are about 7 x 5 mm each*MARKS: SILVER stamped on the insides of the clip back hardware *WEIGHT: Earrings together weigh 8.7 grams on my scale - not including the box *CONDITION: Great vintage condition - no quirks or damage to mention concerning the earrings at all. The stones are all intact and completely free from chips, crazing, wear, cracks, nicks, etc. and clip backs in good working order. The box has some negligible wear, discoloration, etc one would expect of a box over 100 years old. Nothing glaring or out of the ordinaryView & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged. I will do my best to note anything glaring or distracting.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS, PLEASE READ: I reserve the right to cancel a transaction and refund your funds in full if shipments to your destination are not insurable and/or trackable. The shipping price I charge just covers the fees to ship your package out on my end. You most likely will have additional charges, customs fees, duties, taxes, etc from the delivery office in your region. It is your responsibility to check on these costs beforehand if it is of concern to you. I have no knowledge, control of, nor responsibility for paying those at all. Be advised that you may experience delivery/customs delays, package searches, or misc red tape issues that are entirely out of my jurisdiction. I pay additional insurance and fees on the postage funds I receive that will not be reflected/listed on your shipping tags. I ship via international priority mail to protect us both - please don't ask for a less expensive rate, as I won't ship any other way. I will not falsify, under value, or list contents as a gift on customs forms as that is both illegal and interferes with the proper insurance amount.
