Overview:
Finely detailed pair of vintage bell earrings (circa 1953) crafted in 9k yellow gold.
The sweet earrings are crafted in the form of a bell, a likely creation and nod to a wedding celebration. The earrings move freely with a soft chime from the bells! The English hallmarked earrings date to 1953, made in Birmingham, UK. The post backings are a later addition to the earrings (along with the butterfly backings).
The earrings are in good original condition with patina evident. We have not cleaned them in order to preserve the patina and collector value.
