Vintage-Style Marcasite and Red Glass Leverback Drop Earrings

A pair of decorative leverback earrings featuring a drop-style design. Each earring is composed of a metallic leverback closure in a silver-tone metal, possibly sterling silver or silver-plated base metal, which displays a mild patina consistent with age. Suspended from the leverback is a circular decorative element set with clear sparkling stones, likely cubic zirconia or glass, surrounded by a milgrain textured border. Below this, a faceted pear-shaped or teardrop-style bead in a deep garnet-red color is secured by a thin wire frame. This red component appears to be glass or a synthetic resin, featuring large geometric facets that catch the light. The frame is accented with small metallic beads that resemble marcasite stones, typical of Victorian revival or Art Deco-inspired costume jewelry. The overall length is approximately 1.25 inches. Condition appears fair to good; there is some visible dulling on the metal surfaces and minor surface scratches on the red faceted stones. No clear maker's marks are visible in the provided image. The design reflects a modern interpretation of early 20th-century jewelry aesthetics.
