    I'd have said more mid to late 1980s, from the design. I wonder if someone had them altered from pierced to clip. The circle bit inside could have been soldered on after they clipped a post off.

    Doesnt k18 mean its gold ? Id think theyd be marked elsewhere . Rather brutalist looking things,but interesting nonetheless.

    The small clip part looks plated.

    I have a ring that has a K18 mark. I brought it to a jeweler because it looked like it was cheap junk. He tested it & said it was 18K & not cheap, just bright.

    Yes, it was a ring from 1980’s.

    From what I have found so far most Jewelry marked k18 was made in Europe or Japan.
