Filigree Earrings Appraisal

Bohemian Filigree and Beaded Dangle Earrings

This item is a pair of decorative earrings, likely intended for pierced ears, featuring an intricate filigree design with dangling beads. Each earring consists of a large, semi-circular or crescent-shaped metal component at the top, crafted from what appears to be a silver-toned metal, possibly pewter, base metal with a silver finish, or antiqued silver. The metalwork exhibits an openwork design with ornate scrollwork and floral motifs, including discernible flowers with multiple petals and vine-like elements. The surface shows a slightly antiqued or oxidized finish, enhancing the details and providing some depth to the design. From the bottom edge of the metal component, numerous small, round beads are suspended on individual links. These beads are primarily in two colors: a vibrant, translucent orange and a smaller number of translucent pink/purple beads. The orange beads are more numerous and appear to be of a consistent size and shape, likely glass or acrylic. The pink/purple beads are interspersed occasionally, adding a subtle color contrast. The construction appears to be machine-made or mass-produced, indicated by the uniformity of the filigree and bead attachment points. Each earring has a hook attachment at the top for wearing. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures. The overall style suggests a bohemian, ethnic-inspired, or contemporary fashion accessory, dating loosely from the late 20th to early 21st century. The condition appears good, with no obvious major damage, although minor surface wear or slight tarnishing consistent with age and use may be present. The beads seem intact, and the metal shows a consistent finish across both pieces, indicating good craftsmanship for its presumed quality level.
