Vintage retailer Sweet Sterling Silver Earrings

Vintage Silver Earrings marked Sterling on the screw. Beautiful repousse handwork. I assume these are Mexican Silver because of the style and because they are marked sterling they are early silver earrings.

Earrings 3/4 inch. Screw ons.

It has retailer a wonderful patina of being worn and loved. Slight imperfections of the hand wrought pieces. These earlier pieces have a vibe and history.

The hand work and color of vintage Mexican Silver makes these jewelry pieces special. One can wear these pieces with jeans or a tuxedo.

There are great books published for collectors of Mexican Silver that gives the history and examples for the Master Silversmiths. “Mexican Silver, 20th Century Hand-wrought Jewelry & Silver, by Penny C. Morrill and Carole A. Berk.
