Pair of Modernist Cubic Zirconia or Diamond Pendant Earrings in Sterling Silver
This is a matching pair of drop-style earring components or small jewelry pendants featuring an architectural, modernist geometric design. Each piece is constructed from a cool-toned white metal, likely sterling silver or white gold, featuring an elongated 'A-frame' or wishbone structure. The metal arms converge at a top bail, which is attached to two interlocking jump rings for suspension. Near the base of each frame, a round brilliant-cut colorless stone is securely held in a four-prong setting. The stones exhibit significant dispersion and internal reflection, suggestive of high-grade cubic zirconia or diamonds. The construction appears to be cast rather than hand-forged, characteristic of late 20th-century or contemporary manufacturing. Both pieces show evidence of wear including light surface scratches and a slight yellowing or tarnish consistent with silver or unplated white gold. No visible maker’s marks or purity stamps are discernible in the photograph, but the craftsmanship is industrial and symmetrical. The overall aesthetic belongs to the minimalist contemporary jewelry period, focusing on clean lines and negative space.
