The detailed enamel hoops are .75 inch and the tiny .5 inch crescent moon components swing independently. The design is a typical one of Spanish Damascene style. They drop to 1.5 inches.

***Please note that the earring tops are contemporary and matched to the hanging components.*** These, as most earrings from this era, were clip-on style. I have married the contemporary swivel earring hooks to appeal to more customers.

Vintage Damascene jewelry was made between 1930 and 1970. It is still made today, but the contemporary craftsmanship is easily distinguished from the old pieces. Japanese Damascene was made by oxidizing metal, hence the black background, then adding gold or silver foil to the etched design. In Spanish Damascene, the metal has been textured and the black color is created by enamel being added.

NecromanceNola vintage jewelry sells this type of vintage earrings often since they were well made, usually plated multiple times and had unique design. The design is unique and they have a nice weight to them.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Www.Etsy.Com/Shop/Necromancenola.
