Big, bold and totally unique! These artisan handcrafted earrings are shaped like Africa. They are made out of brass and sterling silver. The brass shapes have a pierced (cut out) design and have sterling silver wire threaded thru them. The top sterling shapes also have a pierced design and a very subtle texture. These earrings are quite unusual and will definitely make a statement. I purchased them brand new in the 90s at the Museum of Fine Arts gift shop in Houston, TX. They were created by a designer, but I can't recall the name. A great artisan piece of jewelry to add to your collection!
MEASUREMENTS: They measure 3/1/4" in length and 1-3/4" at widest point. They have soldered sterling silver posts and clutches.
CONDITION: Very good- only worn a few times. They have an antiqued patina, but you can polish them if you prefer them shiny.
NOTE: Please refer to measurements above. Photos are enlarged to show the details.
