    Hi there! I'm hoping you can help me confirm the age of these earrings, I'm thinking 1920s-30s? Any idea where they could be from? I am guessing possibly Czech or French but have no clue! The amber colour is glass, they appear to be silver plated. No markings on them. Any info appreciated :)

    Might be earlier, maybe even Edwardian. They’re lovely. That intaglio looks very Bohemian, agreed.

    I think those are older too. Designed to be worn by a woman with her hair up.

    Absolutely, one of those cottage loaf hair styles, high necked lace blouse. Very Railway Children.

    Very GIMME.:p:p:p I'd wear those in a heartbeat. Either the wearer had very short hair or had it pinned up. Mine is generally pinned up and out of my way.
