Pearl Jewellery Appraisal

Vintage Faux Pearl Cluster Clip-On Earrings

The item appears to be a pair of vintage clip-on earrings, each featuring a cluster of five faux pearls set in silver-toned metal. The pearls are a muted, slightly iridescent beige or champagne color, suggesting an aged or 'vintage' patina rather than bright white. Each faux pearl is individually encased within a floral or scalloped bezel setting, giving them the appearance of blooming flowers. These settings are intricately shaped, contributing to a decorative aesthetic. The overall construction suggests a base metal, likely silver-plated or a similar alloy, given the handwritten 'silver' notation on the packaging. The earrings are arrangedymmetrically on a brown Kraft paper-style backing card, which itself is labeled 'jewellery' and 'NEW TO YOU', indicating a pre-owned or consignment retail environment. The handwritten 'Bond Boyd' on the card might refer to a potential manufacturer or style name, 'Bond Boyd' being a known Canadian jewelry manufacturer from the mid-20th century. The condition appears to be good for a vintage item, with some potential minor wear consistent with age, though specific damage is not clearly visible through the plastic packaging. The clip-on mechanism is not visible but can be inferred from the typical construction of such earrings. The style suggests a mid-20th century aesthetic, possibly 1950s or 1960s, a period when faux pearls and floral motifs were popular.
