Ciner Sapphire Blue Crystal Rhinestone Silver Tone Earrings

So beautiful! These midcentury earrings seem to dance in the light, with sapphire blue crystal rhinestones and a single clear crystal at the base of each. The silver tone settings have a mirror smooth finish. Signed "CINER" in block capitals without a copyright symbol, the earrings date to the early 1950s. The Ciner quality is unmistakable, and this particular pair of earrings has come through the decades in gorgeous style. Excellent vintage condition -- as close to perfection as we've ever seen in costume jewelry from this period. The only signs of wear we could find were invisible to the naked eye but visible in close photos -- miniscule variations in the silver finish.
