Any thoughts on this piece? Wondering if it is possibly a repro? Paint seems a little sloppy on the base, but I'm not an expert on Royal Dux....
I'm not sure I could handle the back to front either, but you might get used to it over time. Or, sell to someone else! Good problem to have.
For what it's worth, I would have guessed 1960's knowing nothing else. I think they are very classy. I bet they look nice on.
They do look like quality earrings. The back-to-front way they attach should be some kind of clue as to age. I've never seen that before....
Also, as was asked, what are the dimensions of these? Doesn't have to be exact, just approximately. A photo of the entire back would be nice, too.
Very nice!
Whatever the origin, I agree that the first one looks like a lot of work went into it. Very unusual. I've never seen similar with those curls....
A hearty welcome!

Wow, thanks for sharing. They are beautiful! :) I've never found one "in the wild" as they say, either. Hoping to one day!
Welcome!
I'll take all of the bird pins.
Oh my goodness, at first I was reading the text and only saw the top of the photo and was admiring the garnet on the watch chain. Then I...
All good ideas, thanks so much. (Sorry Komokwa, it is probably spoken for. No huge value, I'm guessing, but a neighbor was interested.)
And we'd love to see the rest of your collection, too. Love the owls! Vintage Karen and Calico, I can see why you collect this garnet jewelry....
Fair enough, the print might be newer than the frame. Good point. Just confirming no one wants the print, sounds like that is the case. Frame...
Toulouse-Lautrec was my guess, too. I knew I'd seen the scene. So a 1920's print... no resale value, right?
I need a shabby vintage frame for a project, and this was at my local GW. Am I correct that a vintage print like this has little or no resale...
Delicious!
These are fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing.
