Silver-Tone Ear Jacket Earrings with Faux Pearls and Cubic Zirconia

A pair of contemporary ear jacket earrings designed in a tiered, dangling waterfall style. Each earring features a stud component set with a single round, brilliant-cut clear stone, likely cubic zirconia, held in a four-prong basket setting. The jacket portion consists of five delicate, silver-tone curved metal wires of varying lengths that fan out and descend from the earlobe. At the end of these wires are white, spherical faux pearls of approximately 4-6mm in diameter. The metal appears to be a plated base metal or sterling silver with a bright, polished finish. The construction is mass-produced architectural jewelry characteristic of the late 2010s. The jacket design allows the fanned pearls to appear as though they are floating beneath the earlobe. The condition is used; visible oxidation or tarnish is present on the metal wires, particularly where they connect to the main mounting. The faux pearls exhibit a high luster but may have minor surface abrasions consistent with wear. One of the jacket wires on the left earring appears slightly bent out of symmetry.
