Two-Tone Ribbed C-Hoop Earrings
A pair of medium-sized, two-tone C-shaped hoop earrings featuring a distinctive ribbed or fluted texture. The main body of the earrings is finished in a polished yellow gold-tone metal, exhibiting a deeply grooved concentric pattern that creates a sense of movement. Each end of the 'C' shape is capped with a contrasting white gold or silver-tone textured band, providing a modern mixed-metal aesthetic. The earrings utilize a traditional saddleback or hinged latch closure with a curved earwire (post) that snaps into a v-shaped catch. These pieces reflect a classic 1980s or 1990s fashion style, prioritizing volume and texture. While the exact metal purity is not visible via the image, the construction suggests a high-quality costume or fine jewelry piece with a hollow interior for comfortable wear. The surfaces show minor signs of wear and light tarnishing, particularly on the earwires, but appear well-maintained with no significant structural damage or deep scratches. The craftsmanship is evidenced by the precision of the ribbing and the secure hinge mechanism.
