These are a great pair of Vintage Native American Southwest Southwestern Sterling Silver and Black Onyx Pierced Earrings measuring approx. 1/2" at their widest, and although not marked, I will guarantee that they are STERLING SILVER. Great looking pair of earrings! Please remember that anything handmade is not perfect. There may be some flaws, mostly from manufacture, and possibly from age. I will try to note anything that I see as a major flaw. Please check out my other items. Please NOTE, I do not clean any of the jewelry as some collectors prefer to leave the original patina on the piece. Coin Silver is used a lot in the making of jewelry, especially Native American pieces. Coin Silver is 800 parts to 1000, ie 800/1000 pure silver, whereas Sterling Silver is 925 parts to 1000, ie 925/1000 pure silver.
