Surprise your favorite lady (or treat yourself) with these gorgeous modernist earrings!
These exquisite vintage 14 karat yellow gold earrings feature a sleek sculptural design with a softly curved shield or elongated teardrop form, giving them a sophisticated Mid-Century Modern aesthetic. Their smooth high-polish finish and minimalist geometric styling make them timeless statement pieces that remain effortlessly wearable today. These earrings screw on securely, so pierced ears are not required.
Each earring measures 23.16 millimeters (just under 15/16 inch) long by 13.79 millimeters (just under 9/16 inch) wide. The pair together weighs 4.07 grams. They are stamped 14K and signed BAGNAL, likely for Joel Bagnal, goldsmith, of St. Augustine, Florida. Based on the style and construction, these earrings were most likely made in the late 1970s to mid-1980s, inspired by earlier Mid-Century Modern jewelry designs.
Expected fine scratches can be polished out; otherwise, good estate condition.
We are listing several pieces of estate jewelry, along with other items fresh from fine North Carolina estates.

We purchase our items primarily at auctions and estate sales.
We purchase from reputable auction houses and dealers, and we test all gems and precious metals. While we are not experts, we try to list each item in as much detail as possible. We cannot describe every tiny nuance; therefore, please use the zoom feature and consider each picture carefully.
All of our jewelry items arrive in a gift box. If you would like a more impressive gift box, we have some available for purchase. If you would like non-jewelry items gift-wrapped, you can purchase gift-wrapping at checkout.
I ship all items the next business day after I receive them. First Class mail generally takes 3-5 business days in the U.S. Priority Mail takes 1-3 days in the U.S. However, please note that it took the US Postal Service 21 days to deliver one First Class package to California. Shipping to other countries can take 2-6 weeks via First Class International. If you need something for a specific date, consider using Priority Mail or Priority Mail Express.

I offer layaway for items over $300. You may make up to 3 monthly payments for a handling fee of $5. A 10% cancellation fee will be charged if you cancel the order. No discounts apply.
