Condition
Condition appears very good to excellent from photos. The black Lucite body retains its high-gloss finish with no visible chips or cracks observed. The marbled resin cabochons are intact on both earrings with no apparent lifting or crazing. The gold-tone bezels show minor oxidation consistent with age — this is expected patina, not damage. Reverse backs show some light surface scuffing on the flat black base, visible in photos. Clip hardware appears functional and intact on both pieces. No signature or maker's mark visible.
