    I’m posting 9 pieces/sets of jewelry today and will appreciate any and all information and opinions the jewelry experts wish to offer. I paid $4 for this unsigned cloisonne necklace (28” long) and $3 for the earrings, but bought them on different days at the same store…they don’t match exactly.

    I’m thinking they are from the 1960’s, or are they newer? I also noticed that the flowers on the necklace have kind of a crackled appearance...are they supposed to be that way or is that damage? All of the beads seem to have that same crackled look on the flowers, but not the earrings.

    Thank you, Ce BCA and komokwa....I'll go with 1980s. I was thinking 60s because of the clip earrings, but now remember that clip earrings were still popular in the 80s because the style was big, bold, and heavy.

    Agree with 1980s. A very popular import.
