Multi-Color Wooden Beaded Cluster Earrings |
Clusters of stained, muted, multi-colored wooden beads, dangling with smaller columns of stacked beads make up these Haskell-esque, circa 1950 earrings. Begging to be heard, this fun and flirty pair measure 3" long by 1 1/4" wide when hanging. There is some definite fading of these colors (greens and yellows especially) that has happened over time, and the beads do show a bit of wear, but the fading is consistent and almost looks intentional. The hardware on these have been replace with new silver-toned hoops (not by us), although the rest of the metal on these is the original brass. Still, a fun pair of earrings that we couldn't resist.
