Vintage Gold-Tone Textured Wheat Bundle Earrings

This is a pair of vintage clip-on or stud earrings featuring a dynamic, multi-layered spray design reminiscent of stylized wheat bundles or a sunburst. Constructed from a bright, polished yellow gold-tone metal, the earrings exhibit an intricate textural contrast. Each individual 'frond' or grain stem is rendered with a beaded or granulated texture down the center, flanked by smooth, high-polish borders that catch the light from various angles. The overall shape is asymmetrical and sweeping, creating a sense of movement. Based on the cast construction and the specific style of texturing, these earrings likely date to the late 1980s or early 1990s, a period known for bold, architectural costume jewelry. The craftsmanship is of high quality for costume pieces, with clean finishing on the edges and no visible casting pits. The condition appears to be excellent with a consistent gold finish and no apparent signs of verdigris or heavy oxidation. There are minor micro-scratches consistent with age and gentle handling, but no significant loss of plating is visible on the decorative face. No maker's mark is visible from the front view, though high-end brands like Monet or Trifari produced similar elevated textured designs during this era.
