Thank you for your interest in this listing. I’ll be away from the shop from Feb 20 to approximately March 15 on family matters. Should you wish to purchase this item during that time, I appreciate your patience with the shipping timeframe & apologize for the inconvenience. I appreciate your business. Thanks, Linda at Bloom Again Vintage These fantastic vintage earrings are made of little balls of handstitched sequins that were made in Japan. The sequins are an iridescent silvery white. The balls are about ¾" around. The total drop from the ear is about 1". I’m not sure what they were originally intended to be used for, but they have been made into earrings with sterling silver earwires. The sequined balls were probably made in the 1960s. Please keep in mind that when buying vintage items, you are purchasing something that is pre-loved & used. Most vintage items show signs of wear & may have defects, but that is also what makes them so unique. Vintage Earrings Silver & White Iridescent Sequined Balls Dangling Ear Wires
