These lovely leafy ivy earrings date to 1965; they have a patent number. The leaf surfaces are a combination of matte and shiny. The earrings are screw-down clip backs and measure 1 1/16" long. There is some corrosion to one of the back pads, otherwise very good. Shipping is free! I only sell to USA buyers and offer free USPS First Class shipping in the USA for my customers.
