    I was wondering if these were 1930's or earlier. They are 1 1/4" long and I think they are shell as they are nicely translucent. Thank you for any help.

    1930 era is consistent with the style, construction and screw back!

    I think of her as 'corsage lady' & she began to appear in 1930 or so. You still see her in the 1950s, but the construction of the earrings makes me agree with others that 30s more likely.

    Thanks Bronwen. This forum has helped me so much in dating jewelry but sometimes I feel so much better with confirmation.

    @bosko69, I agree, they are sweet.

    Those would be very easy to make into pierced earrings and the old findings could be saved .

    My daughter would love those for her 1920 and 30's outfits.
