Vintage Bold Sterling Clip Earrings Sculptural Taxco

Large high quality sculptural ribbed design sterling silver clip earrings. 

Each of these tailored earrings is marked:

  • TJ-84
  • MEXICAN
  • 925

The TJ mark is a code assigned to a Taxco silversmith by the Mexican in about 1980.  I haven't been able to identify the specific maker.

I believe these earrings are from the mid-1980s. 

Any color variations in the pictures are due to reflections.  The color in person is an even silver.

Inv #12517.

SIZE:  Each earring is about 1 1/4" by 1 3/8".  The weight is 21.1 grams (2/3 ounce).

CONDITION: This item is in excellent condition - no damage or wear. 

BACKGROUND:  I recently bought an incredible jewelry collection amassed from the early 1950s through the 1990s.  There are very few ordinary pieces, as this lady favored high quality, large scale, bold jewelry. 

I'll be listing many pieces over the coming months.  Today I'm listing some of the silver pieces.

SHIPPING CHARGE, INTERNATIONAL:  Please ask for an exact quote before bidding.

 

 



 

 
 
 
 
I've been selling antiques and collectibles since the early 1980s and had a retail shop until 2001. I buy most of my merchandise from residents of the retirement community where I live. Because many of the residents are quite elderly, I find lots of 1940s and 1950s cookware, china, and household items along with some earlier family pieces and many recent gift items (often never used).

 

 
 
U.S. Buyers:


•  For U.S. sales I accept Paypal.  I ship to the address on the Paypal notice.

•  As required by law, I collect sales tax from all Washington State residents unless the buyer is purchasing for resale and has a valid UBI number.

International Buyers:

•  I accept Paypal from international customers who have ebay feedback from at least 30 sellers. 

For international customers with eBay Feedback from fewer than 30 sellers, I accept Paypal only if the customer's address is shown as CONFIRMED by Paypal.

 

 

About our Shipping Policies:
 
•  I quote exact domestic shipping, handling, and insurance charges in my auctions so that you can factor that cost into your bidding decisions. For your protection and peace of mind, I insure every package and purchase delivery confirmation or tracking for all domestic packages.

•  For domestic destinations, USPS is my shipper for small packages (up to 3 pounds) and FedEx for heavier items. For international packages, I use USPS.

•  I offer reduced shipping when more than one item is sent to the same address.

•  I normally ship within 24 hours of receipt of payment.


• 
The customer is responsible for duties, taxes, and other fees incurred on international packages.  I complete customs documents honestly showing the item as merchandise with the high bid as the value.

For some items shipped internationally, Express Mail International may be required, as that class of international mail includes tracking.
I accept returns if notified within 7 days of receipt of the item. The item must be returned in the same condition as when shipped. If I have made an error in the listing, I will pay the shipping both ways; otherwise, the buyer is responsible for shipping.

 

I am happy to answer any and all questions from potential Buyers.  Feel free to email me for additional information by clicking the Ask seller a question link to the right of the picture at the top of this page.
