These lovely earrings show some of their age and have been converted from their original wires to a clip many, many years ago. There is a bit of soft solder on the back of earrings at bottom where the clips were attached. Clips appears to be brass. These were converted from wires and you can still see where the wire attached on back. Total weight is 12.8 grams. Earrings were tested and tested out at 10kt solid gold. I can only estimate the gold weight as the clips are not gold. I suspect it will be approx. 8 to 9 grams (maybe more, maybe less????). Again, only conjecture, as I will not remove the clips to weigh them, but a competent jeweler could convert these back to wires. if so desire. Pics were difficult, but there is a very ornate design all over the dome section of earrings. Also some black enamel work on earrings and tassel tops. One seed pearl in each earring in center of design is still intact. Each measures approx. 2 1/8", top of earring to bottom of tassel. Tassels all intact, each with small gold ball at bottom.
Heavy and solid for this type of earring, nice quality.
