Black Onyx Teardrop Dangle Earrings

A pair of contemporary dangle earrings featuring polished black teardrop-shaped pendants, likely carved from natural black onyx or a similar high-luster glass composite. Each drop is approximately 15mm long with a smooth, reflective surface free of chips or surface scratches. The stones are suspended from thin, yellow metal ear wires, which appear to be crafted in a simple shepherd's hook or kidney-wire style with a security latch at the bottom to prevent loss during wear. The metal tone suggests a 10k or 14k gold composition, though no specific hallmark is visible in the provided image. The construction is minimal, utilizing small jump rings to connect the pendants to the wires, allowing for natural movement and light play. The condition is excellent with no visible tarnish on the metal and a deep, consistent jet-black hue in the stones. This minimalist aesthetic is characteristic of late 20th-century to modern jewelry design, prioritizing clean geometric lines over ornate detailing. The craftsmanship is professional, with uniform shaping of both the stones and the wire closures.
