Round opal cabochons display blue, green, yellow, and orange flashes in these vintage yellow gold stud earrings. Each domed stone sits within a plain bezel surrounded by a twisted rope border and an outer row of rounded gold beads. The layered surrounds lend texture to the compact circular design, contrasting with the smooth surfaces of the opals. The earring tops test as 24k yellow gold, while the threaded posts test as 14k yellow gold. Chinese characters appear on the closed backs of the settings, and the posts bear 14k marks.
