Teardrop Dangle Earrings with Crushed Stone Inlay

A pair of contemporary dangle earrings, featuring a teardrop shape with a filigree-style outer frame in a golden-toned metal. The inner recess of the teardrop is filled with a reddish-brown enamel or resin, creating a distinct contrast with the metallic border. Each earring's central oval-shaped bezel contains an assortment of small, irregularly shaped, tumbled or crushed stone fragments in varied muted colors, including light grays, browns, and off-whites, secured within a clear resin or adhesive. The golden metal frame has intricate, openwork patterns, suggesting a filigree or stamped design, with additional embossed or raised dot patterns near the central stone setting. The back surface, if visible, appears to be solid, likely a continuation of the golden-toned metal. They feature standard fishhook ear wires made of a silver-toned metal, with a small decorative coil at the base of the hook where it attaches to the earring body. One of the ear wires shows a slight bend, indicating minor wear or handling. No visible maker's marks or signatures are apparent. The overall aesthetic suggests a bohemian or ethnic-inspired style, likely mass-produced in the late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be commercially standard, with some visible irregularities in the stone placement, reinforcing its accessible jewelry nature. The metallic finish shows some slight darkening or patina in recesses, consistent with age and exposure, but no significant damage or missing components are evident beyond the bent wire.
