Yellow Gold 'X' Motif Stud Earrings

This is a pair of yellow gold stud earrings, designed in a distinctive 'X' or 'kiss' motif, reminiscent of the 'Love and Kisses' collection. Each earring features two prominent, polished gold bands that cross over each other to form the 'X' shape. The bands have a graceful, slightly curved and volumetric appearance, with the ends of the bands curling inward, giving them a ribbon-like or scrolled aesthetic. The surface of the gold is highly polished, reflecting light and displaying a rich, warm yellow hue. While the overall condition appears good, there are visible signs of wear, particularly faint scratches and smudges on the polished surfaces, which is common for used jewelry. The posts for piercing are centrally located on the back of each 'X' and appear to be straight and intact, though the butterfly backs are not visible in the provided image. There are no discernible maker's marks or stamps visible in these images, which would typically be located on the reverse side of the earring or on the post itself. Without such markings, it's difficult to confirm the exact gold karatage or designer. Given the classic, enduring design, these earrings likely date from the late 20th century to the early 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with smooth finishes and well-defined contours, indicative of a mass-produced fine jewelry item rather than a unique artisan piece. The design has a timeless appeal, making it suitable for both casual and formal wear.
