Dangle earrings on White Stag-style retail card

A pair of drop-style earrings featuring silver-toned metal construction with a 'lever-back' or 'euro-wire' closure. Each earring consists of a small circular pendant with a floral or scalloped border design, centered with a dark, possibly hematite-colored or iridescent blue-black round stone or faceted bead. The metal appears to have an antiqued or oxidized finish to emphasize the decorative texture. The pair is displayed on a cream-and-tan striped cardboard retail backing that bears the printed text 'WHITE STAG' with a deer logo and the phrase 'HYPO ALLERGENIC' on a black banner. This packaging is characteristic of mass-market fashion jewelry often found in department stores during the late 20th to early 21st centuries. The earrings appear to be in new or unused condition with no visible tarnishing, though the material (likely a base metal alloy) can only be confirmed through physical testing. The 'White Stag' branding on the card is consistent with retail distribution for that label, but because packaging can be swapped, this association remains a hypothesis subject to verification.

Based on my visual analysis of the provided image, I have evaluated these dangle earrings currently presented on a 'White Stag' branded card. The earrings appear to be mass-market fashion jewelry constructed from silver-toned base metal with an antiqued finish and inset faux-stone or glass beads. While the presence of retail packaging suggests a specific brand association, I cannot verify the material composition or the historical consistency of the carding without a physical inspection. These items are typical of 'department store' jewelry from the late 20th century, which generally utilizes costume-grade alloys and synthetic components. Market demand for this type of jewelry is driven by aesthetic appeal and brand nostalgia rather than intrinsic metal value. The estimate of $10 to $25 assumes the items are in the unworn condition suggested by the photo. If these were determined to be made of sterling silver or contained genuine semiprecious stones—which I cannot confirm from a photo—the value would increase. Conversely, if the metal shows signs of pitting or the backing is a later replacement, the value would be at the lower end of the range. To confirm authenticity and material quality, one would need to perform an acid test for silver content and examine the beads under magnification for characteristic inclusions or surface wear. In the current secondary market, unauthenticated pieces of this style typically sell for nominal amounts as vintage accessories.
