Vintage 1950s–1980s Purple Cabochon & Clear Rhinestone Stud Earrings – 3/4”

A beautiful pair of vintage stud earrings featuring rich purplish-burgundy domed center stones surrounded by a sparkling halo of clear faux rhinestones. The warm-toned metal setting beautifully complements the deep berry-purple centers, giving the earrings an elegant and romantic vintage appearance.

 

The circular halo design has a classic costume-jewelry look, with the clear stones adding plenty of sparkle around the smooth, luminous center cabochons. At approximately 3/4 inch, these are a lovely petite statement size—noticeable and glamorous without being overly large.

 

The exact age of this pair is unknown. Based on the overall design and styling, they may date anywhere from approximately the 1950s through the 1980s, so the dating should be considered an estimate rather than a confirmed manufacturing period.

VINTAGE JEWELRY NOTE — PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING

 

This is a pre-owned vintage piece and has had a life before arriving at Edition Styles. Due to the age and pre-owned nature of vintage jewelry, pieces may show minor signs of previous wear, age, handling, or storage. This may include light surface wear, small scratches, patina, tarnishing, discoloration, finish or plating wear, oxidation, slight variations in texture, or other characteristics consistent with age.

 

We carefully inspect, photograph, and describe our vintage jewelry to the best of our ability. Any notable flaws observed during our inspection will be disclosed in the individual description and/or shown in the photographs. However, vintage jewelry is not new, and small or subtle signs of age and previous wear may be present.

 

Please carefully review all photographs before purchasing. Photographs are an important part of the item’s condition description.

 

Unless specifically identified and stated in the individual listing, we do not guarantee exact metal composition, plating, gemstone composition, rhinestone composition, glass, acrylic, resin, or other material content. Descriptive terminology such as “cabochon,” “rhinestone,” “purple,” and similar terms is used to describe appearance, color, design, or style and should not be interpreted as confirmation of a particular material or natural gemstone.

 

Any era or date provided is based on available maker information, markings, construction, design, style, provenance, and/or our best assessment. Unless an exact date is documented or specifically stated as confirmed, vintage dating should be considered an estimate.

 

Measurements are taken by hand and are approximate. Colors, finishes, stones, and textures may appear somewhat different in person due to lighting, reflections, photography, and individual screen settings.

 

Because vintage jewelry can become more delicate with age, we recommend handling pieces carefully and avoiding unnecessary exposure to water, perfume, hairspray, lotions, household cleaners, chemicals, and excessive moisture.
