SALE Old Southwest Sterling Repousse Blossom Screwback Earrings

Artisan Jewelry : Southwest Silver

 

Old Southwestern sterling repousse blossom screw back earrings. Gorgeous metal work, obviously made by a skilled craftsman in the lost wax technique! Possibly Native American. They are hallmarked Sterling. I do not see a makers mark. Often with vintage parures the larger items where hallmarked and earrings sometimes where not. This set looks to be be from one of the fine silver houses from the old southwest. These earrings date to circa 1940 - 1950.

The earrings measure 1 1/4 inches long, by about 1/2 inch in width.

They are in excellent condition! They were black when I retrieved them from my collection. They polished up beautifully. I did leave behind some of the tarnish as it gives depth to the piece and enhances the vintage charm.

Great for the summer! Great for your fine jewelry collection! Great example of jewelry art!
