Colorful Earrings Appraisal

Colorful Beaded Fringe Dangle Earrings

This is a pair of handcrafted dangle earrings, primarily constructed from small glass seed beads strung together. Each earring features a triangular top section, roughly 2-3 inches in width at the base of the triangle, diminishing to a point at the top, from which a silver-tone fishhook ear wire is attached. The main body of the triangle is a consistent light blue. In the center of the blue triangular section on each earring, there is a design resembling a stylized flowering plant or coral, rendered in bright pink and yellow beads. To the left side of this central design, near the base of the triangle, a small black and yellow bead pattern, possibly depicting a bee or abstract insect, is present. Extending from the base of the triangle on each earring are numerous individual strands of beads, forming a distinctive fringe. These strands incorporate a vibrant mix of colors, including hot pink, lime green, black, white, and a darker green, creating a dynamic, almost 'splattered' or 'pixelated' effect. The overall length of the earrings, including the fringe, appears to be approximately 5-6 inches. The craftsmanship suggests careful beading, with consistent bead size and taut strings, indicative of a handmade item. The condition appears good, with no visible missing beads or broken strands. The bright colors and playful, somewhat abstract design suggest a contemporary or folk-art aesthetic, likely dating from the late 20th to early 21st century. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures.
