Perhaps it is Singapore, perhaps Shanghai, perhaps somewhere in between, the sort of place where stories blur and identities are chosen as carefully as jewels. She wears these, of course. Long jade drops that sway with each turn of her head, catching the light as she moves through the room; a room that quiets, just slightly, when she enters. Are they a gift from a devoted admirer perhaps, or a token from a journey? Maybe they are something she chose for herself, knowing exactly the impression they would make? They belong to a woman who understands presence, who leaves a trace of herself behind wherever she goes, never entirely explained: an International Woman of Mystery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDating to the halcyon days of the roaring 20s (nineteen twenties, that is), these earrings are set with four pieces of richly carved jade, each with that unmistakable, glowing translucence that seems to hold light within it. The two lower drops measure 33.7 millimeters north to south, 17.7 millimeters across, and 2.3 millimeters in depth, while the two upper jade elements measure 8.6 millimeters across and 2 millimeters in depth, in between they are tied together with a bow set with sparkling marcasite gems, just enough to capture the eye. The earrings have an overall length of 63 millimeters, measure 17.7 millimeters across at their widest point, and stand 2.3 millimeters from front to back. They weigh 7.32 grams in total, giving them a graceful movement without heaviness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd now here they are, far from wherever that first story began, waiting for someone new to take up the role. Because pieces like this are never just worn, they are inhabited. The one who wears these next may find themselves wondering not just how they came to be here, but where they might they might want to go. Is that you, do you feel your international mysterious self calling?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eItem id: ESA25805VA","brand":"Antiquaria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48339479691518,"sku":"ESA25805VA","price":1300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0468\/8377\/files\/Art_Deco_Carved_Jade_and_Marcasite_Drop_Earrings_c.1920.jpg?v=1781110220","url":"https:\/\/www.victoriasterlingjewelry.com\/products\/art-deco-carved-jade-and-marcasite-drop-earrings-c-1920","provider":"Victoria Sterling","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
