Goldtone Studs Appraisal

Textured Gold-Toned Stud Earrings

This item consists of a pair of gold-toned stud earrings. Each earring features a roughly triangular or teardrop-shaped front, appearing to be solid and somewhat three-dimensional rather than flat. The surface of these gold-toned fronts exhibits a highly textured, hammered, or facets-like finish, which reflects light in various directions, giving them a shimmering effect. The color is a vibrant, reflective yellow-gold, suggesting either gold metal or a gold-plated base metal. The size appears relatively small, typical for stud earrings, likely less than an inch in any dimension. A dark-colored post, possibly made of a base metal like surgical steel or darkened silver, is visible protruding from the back of each earring, indicating they are designed for pierced ears. No visible damage such as dents, scratches, or significant discoloration is apparent from the image, suggesting good overall condition. There are no discernible maker's marks, hallmarks, or signatures visible in the provided image. The style leans towards modern or contemporary jewelry, possibly dating from the late 20th century to the present. The textured finish adds a unique, artisanal quality, suggesting they might be handcrafted or designed to mimic such craftsmanship. The uniform appearance of both earrings indicates they are a matched pair.
