Vintage Oval Mother-of-Pearl Dangle Earrings

This pair of drop earrings features oval-shaped, lustrous white mother-of-pearl cabochons set within a silver-toned metal bezel. Each earring consists of a small polished metal ball post from which the oval pendant is suspended by a jump ring, allowing for subtle movement. The mother-of-pearl displays a soft, iridescent sheen with characteristic variations in nacre reflection, suggesting natural shell origin. The metal components appear to be costume-grade base metal or possibly sterling silver, though no hallmark is visible in the provided image. The construction is classic, likely dating from the late 20th century (circa 1980s-1990s). The condition shows slight signs of pre-owned wear; the metal exhibit a minor dulling or patina consistent with age, and there is one visible surface mark on the left cabochon that may be a natural inclusion or a light scratch. The back of the earrings is not visible to determine the type of closure, but they are currently presented on a generic price or display card. The overall craftsmanship is uniform and commercial, typical of retail jewelry from that era.
