Handcrafted Beaded Flower Drop Earrings

This pair of drop earrings features a stylized five-petal floral motif. Each earring is constructed using silver-toned wire, likely base metal or silver-plated copper, which has been hand-formed to create the petal framework and central structural hubs. The 'petals' consist of faceted amethyst-colored glass beads, likely bicone or round shapes with a high-gloss finish that creates reflective multi-tonal purple hues. The centers are accented with small square-shaped metallic silver beads arranged in a cross patterns. The earrings are suspended from silver-toned shepherd's hook ear wires, each adorned with a single small yellow-amber faceted bead at the junction. The construction exhibits characteristics of artisan or hobbyist wirework rather than mass production, evidenced by the slightly irregular wire wrapping at the eyelets. Condition-wise, the pieces show visible oxidation and tarnishing on the metal wire, particularly around the twisted joints, indicating age or exposure to moisture. One earring appears slightly distorted in shape compared to its counterpart. There are no visible maker's marks, suggesting a contemporary handmade or boutique origin, likely late 20th to early 21st century.
