Vintage Seed Bead Woven Knot Post Earrings

This pair of vintage costume jewelry earrings features a three-dimensional knot or 'turban' design crafted from intricate rows of woven seed beads. The beads exhibit a creamy white, pearlescent finish and are uniform in size, suggesting they are glass or high-quality plastic seed beads. These small beads are meticulously strung and wound around a central core to create a rounded, textured dome shape. A hint of gold-toned metal is visible at the center where the two earring components meet, likely indicating a gold-plated or brass post-back setting. The construction reflects a mid-to-late 20th-century style, common in decorative costume jewelry from the 1960s through the 1980s. The craftsmanship is highly detailed, with tight tension in the beadwork preventing gaps in the pattern. Condition appears excellent with no visible thread fraying, missing beads, or significant yellowing of the pearlescent coating. There are no discernible maker's marks visible from the front view, which is typical for bead-wrapped styles of this era. Their classic aesthetic and neutral color palette emphasize timeless elegance and manual assembly techniques.
