[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4504668, member: 2844"]They seem to be souvenir earrings from the Isle of Man. Not very old, with what looks like a print of an 18th century painting on the top part, and a simplified Manx coin replica on the lower part. The Manx 'coin' features QE II, who is still reigning queen. I wonder if it had more dangles on the other loops, maybe smaller ones? You can always add bead dangles of the same colour as the heart dangle. It looks like 'antiqued' brass. The leverbacks are a nice touch, a very safe earring type. The style is contemporary, age: late 20th century-now. If I were to push it, I could include 'reference to Historic Revival'.;)[/QUOTE]
