VTG 1" Sterling Silver Turquoise Marcasite Teardrop Drop Earrings 925 Southwest

These 1 inch vintage sterling silver drop earrings feature smooth teardrop-shaped turquoise cabochons framed by sparkling marcasite accents in an ornate silver setting. The turquoise displays a soft blue-green hue with natural variation, giving each stone subtle character and depth. The contrast between the cool turquoise and the dark, faceted marcasite creates a classic look with strong vintage appeal.

Each turquoise stone is set in an open-back bezel, allowing light to pass through and enhancing the stone's natural color. The surrounding marcasite stones are set in geometric patterns that echo Art Deco and Victorian revival influences. The earrings are crafted in solid sterling silver with oxidized detailing that highlights the textured silverwork.

The design features a sculpted leaf or arrow-shaped stud top with a short articulated drop, giving the earrings movement while remaining comfortable and secure. They are fitted with straight posts and butterfly backs and are stamped 925,
