Mixed-Metal Square Inlay Drop Earrings

This pair of drop earrings features a modern, geometric design with a square profile. The front of each earring is set with a flat, polished inlay, possibly a naturalist material like picture jasper or a similar variegated stone, showcasing a palette of moss green with dendritic reddish-brown and black inclusions. The settings are constructed from a bright silver-toned metal, likely sterling silver or a high-quality base metal with plating. A distinct design element is the toggle-like accent piece above the stone, which includes a gold-toned mechanical spacer, adding a mixed-metal aesthetic. The back of the earrings reveals a textured, cross-hatched metal finish, providing architectural interest even from the rear. They are suspended from simple French wire hooks. The condition appears excellent with no visible tarnishing or chips to the inlay. The contemporary styling suggests a late 20th to early 21st-century production, likely artisanal or designer-made. The precision in the metal joinery and the deliberate selection of the patterned stone indicate a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
