Modernist sterling silver earrings from Germany. They have a highly textural design, reminiscent of tree bark. I had them converted from screwbacks to posts. They are just about two inches long and in excellent condition. They are marked on the rear Sterling Germany and NW in a circle. Interestingly, I have the matching necklace which I acquired some months ago. Though with the same makers mark, it is marked for 800 silver. The necklace (item #1652) is sold separately.

A sterling silver pendant made of "folded" silver geometric shapes with a somewhat Asian feel. The back of the pendant is marked Sterling, Newhard. The chain is sterling but new and not original to the pendant. The pendant itself is 2 3/8" long inclusive of the jump ring. The oxidized and slightly rough surface enhances the silver folds creating a shallow but definitive dimensionality.
