Gold-Tone Teardrop Dangle Earrings with Cat's Eye Glass and Rhinestones
A pair of decorative dangle earrings featuring a gold-tone metal base with a lever-back or hook fastening. Each earring showcases a central synthetic cat's eye or moonstone-style glass cabochon, identifiable by its milky, chatoyant reflection. The cabochon is seated within a teardrop-shaped metal frame that curls around the stone. Below the central stone, the frame is accented with a pave-style arrangement of clear round-cut rhinestones or crystals, likely glass or cubic zirconia. An additional larger clear stone is set at the pivot point between the hook and the dangle. The metal has a bright polished yellow gold finish, though there is visible surface wear and slight dulling on the hooks, suggesting they are gold-plated or costume-grade base metal. The construction appears to be machine-cast, typical of late 20th-century or contemporary fashion jewelry. There are no immediate maker's marks visible on the front or the side of the settings. The pair is displayed on a white cardboard retail tag with an orange circular sticker, indicating they may be secondhand or thrifted. Stylistically, they draw inspiration from Art Nouveau organic forms but with a modern mass-market execution.
