A pair of vintage reproduction earrings in a Victorian style with acorns and oak leaves in both metal and pressed purple glass. The motifs are oddly redundant, and the scale is out of proportion with what would have been done in the 19th century, but there's something appealing about the anachronisms and overall design. Likely made in the 1990s.
