Sterling Silver Tiered Crescent Dangle Earrings

A pair of decorative dangle earrings featuring a tiered, multi-element design with a bohemian or artisan influence. Each earring is constructed from what appears to be polished sterling silver, though a notable golden-yellow tarnish or patina is present across the surface, particularly on the larger crescent elements. The design consists of an ornate openwork scrollwork or filigree top section attached to shepherd's hook ear wires. Suspended from this decorative bridge are two nested, flat-profile crescent or half-moon hoops of graduated sizes. The right earring in the image retains a central, small teardrop-shaped solid metal dangle that resides within the inner crescent, a feature that appears to be missing from the left earring, suggesting a loss or prior repair. The metal displays minor surface scratching and abrasions consistent with regular use. The overall craftsmanship suggests a contemporary vintage or mid-to-late 20th-century artisan production, characterized by the assembly of cast and wire components. The construction is lightweight yet substantial in silhouette, typical of statement jewelry from the 1970s through the 1990s.
