Description
Step into the world of vintage elegance with this stunning jewelry set crafted in the 1980s. The set includes a mesmerizing drop necklace and matching dangle earrings featuring teardrop-cut black onyx stones delicately set into gleaming silver. Inspired by the enchanting southwestern motif, this set captures the essence of timeless beauty.
The history of black onyx jewelry dates back thousands of years, with ancient civilizations like the Egyptians and Romans adorning themselves with this striking gemstone. Revered for its deep black hue, black onyx has been associated with protection, strength, and warding off negative energy throughout various cultures. Over time, it has remained a symbol of elegance and sophistication, making it a timeless favorite in jewelry design.
The jewelry set is in very good vintage condition with minimal signs of wear. The silver shows signs of wear on the backs, but nothing noticeable or distracting. The necklace’s clasp is stamped 950 (95% silver), and the earrings are stamped 925 (sterling). The box clasp with a safety catch is fully functional.
The necklace is 16-1/2″ long, 7/8″ wide, and weighs 32.68 grams. The earrings measure 1-1/2″ tall and 5/16″ wide and weighs 5.45 grams.
