Hello!

A couple of years ago I purchased these beautiful enamel earrings from a vendor on etsy. I absolutely love them. I think they are my most treasured possession! :)

Anyways, like many other people on this board, I was hoping that someone might be able to help me identify the maker. I'd love to track down (and possible collect) more of this person (these people?)'s work. But there don't seem to be any maker's stamps on the earrings, just what looks like a purity stamp.

I wish I could give some more info, but that's about all I've got. The vendor listed them as 1980's deco revival, and is based in the U.S. I have contacted them for more info, and am waiting for a reply.

Any info anyone has would be really appreciated!

Many, many thanks in advance :)

The S925 mark and construction are indicative of Chinese origin. The 80's date is probably spot on. They are lovely but were inexpensive to purchase and usually made in multiples.

S925 can also indicate Scandinavia.

925S indicates Scandinavia, S925 is what China uses.

Oh! Thank you so much! I thought it was odd that they would be the same. I'd read it in a few places, but I did question it. In a previous post, I wrote all this & asked for a definitive answer from anyone who knew. It's so common, yet so many people here don't respond with this being China when it's asked.

I really appreciate it! I hate giving the wrong information & I feel stupid for not clarifying that I wasn't positive.
