Modernist Silver-Tone Triple Tassel Dangle Earring

This is a single dangle-style earring featuring a modernist minimalist aesthetic. The piece is constructed from three slender silver-toned snake chains of varying lengths, each capped with a solid cylindrical metal bar finial. The chains are gathered at a rectangular post-style top, although the butterfly backing is missing. The metal appears to be a silver-toned base metal, possibly stainless steel or silver plating, showing significant signs of wear and age. Specifically, there is visible greenish oxidation (verdigris) on the longest chain and darkening/pitting on the cylindrical caps, suggesting the presence of copper or other reactive alloys beneath a thin plating. The craftsmanship reflects a mass-produced style likely dating from the late 20th century, approximately the 1980s or 1990s, characterized by its architectural and sleek linear silhouette. There are no visible maker's marks or hallmarks on the identifiable surfaces. The current condition is poor due to the heavy surface corrosion and missing components, which would require extensive cleaning and restoration to be wearable.
