Description
Charming nautical-themed drop earrings featuring a vibrant teal-blue cabochon stud and a textured silver-tone starfish charm. These lightweight earrings offer a beachy, coastal vibe perfect for summer wear or resort outfits.
Key Features
Coastal grandmother aesthetic, vibrant sea-blue color, textured metal detail on the starfish, popular summer motif.
Authenticity Indicators
Low confidence in designer origin; construction techniques (jump rings and friction backs) suggest mass-produced fashion jewelry rather than fine jewelry.
Flaws to Note
Single earring shown; if the second is missing, value drops significantly to 'parts' only. No visible hallmarks for sterling silver (e.g., '925' mark missing).
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Mercari, Poshmark, or Depop. These platforms are excellent for small, lightweight fashion jewelry with low shipping costs.
Selling Tips
If selling as a pair, photograph against a clean white background and use keywords like 'Coastal,' 'Nautical,' 'Mermaidcore,' and 'Beach Wedding.' Ship in a padded mailer to protect the stone.
