40s Sterling Silver Onyx Face Screw Back Earrings
Circa 1940s
Lovely Modernist Earrings!
Marked on back Made in Mexico Sterling. There is what appears to be an eagle and some other markings I cannot decipher, they are worn down.
These measure 1 1/8 at widest and 3/4 tall
Great modernist or Mayan face design done in inlay brass and silver. This is layered over what looks to be a layer of black onyx between the outer pieces. With the design of the face you see all three materials. Really unique and quite masterful!
I have not cleaned nor polished these, leaving that to new owner as some like the tarnish and patina. Screw backs are in good condition.
