Marquise-Cut Stone Petite Hoop Earrings

A pair of petite J-hoop style earrings featuring marquise-shaped colorless stones, likely cubic zirconia or small quartz. The earrings are constructed with a high-polish yellow metal, appearing to be gold-plated or low-karat yellow gold. Each earring showcases two marquise-cut stones set vertically along the curve of the hoop in traditional four-prong settings. The design is contemporary and minimalist, approximately 10-12mm in length. The earrings utilize standard post friction backs (butterfly clutches) for closure. Close inspection shows slight tarnishing and wear on the metal surface, particularly around the post and the interior of the curve, suggesting consistent use. There are no visible maker's marks or fineness stamps in the provided image. The craftsmanship is commercial grade, common in late 20th or early 21st-century costume or bridge jewelry. The stones appear secure, though the settings show slight rounding from wear. The overall condition is fair to good, with signs of light oxidation consistent with age and storage on a decorative stone or fabric block.
