70s Damascene Drop Hoop Bird Earrings Dove Earrings

The detailed enamel hoops are 1.25 inch and the small, 3/8 inch disks swing independently. The design is a typical one of Spanish Damascene style with black and silver enamel birds and flowers into the etched gold. They drop to 1.75 inches.
These earrings are circa 1970 and made by a high end costume jewelry maker of the time. The .5 inch tops have gold plated posts.

Vintage Damascene jewelry was made between 1930 and 1970. It is still made today, but the contemporary craftsmanship is easily distinguished from the old pieces. Japanese Damascene was made by oxidizing metal, hence the black background, then adding gold or silver foil to the etched design. In Spanish Damascene, the metal has been textured and the black color is created by enamel being added.

NecromanceNola vintage jewelry sells this type of vintage earrings often since they were well made, usually plated multiple times and had unique design. The design is unique and they have a nice weight to them.
