Pair of Earrings

Cleveland Museum of Art

Pair of earrings by artist unknown. Two identical circular earrings made of metal, possibly silver or gray gold, with a smooth ring and protruding decorative elements. Each earring has 8 protrusions around the ring, alternating between two different shapes. The first shape is a small cone with a rounded top, while the second shape is a short cylinder with a rounded top and a spiral design around its middle. The earrings are symmetrical, with the protrusions evenly spaced around the ring. The background of the image is a solid gray color.
