Vintage Sterling Silver Onyx Cabochon Multicolor Dangle/Drop Earrings

Description

View Vintage Sterling Silver Onyx Cabochon Multicolor Dangle/Drop Earrings with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Small green stones: likely green onyx or chrysoprase. Black stones: black onyx. Pale pink stones: unknown. The silver appears hand-fabricated, with individual bezel-set cabochons and applied silver bead decoration. These are sterling-silver multi-stone dangle/post earrings, and the construction and stone combination strongly suggest Southwestern/Mexican-style artisan jewelry, vintage. I believe the materials are: Black stones: black onyx Large cream/white stones: unknown Pale pink stones: unknown Small green stones: likely green onyx or chrysoprase Top oval: abalone shell Metal: sterling silver — the backs are clearly stamped “Sterling” The silver appears hand-fabricated, with individual bezel-set cabochons and applied silver bead decoration. That makes these considerably nicer than inexpensive modern mass-produced shell earrings. Age and origin I'd tentatively date them to roughly the 1960s–1980s, possibly Mexican/Southwestern production. One of the earrings is missing its back. Condition: Pre-owned - Good.
