1983 AVON Court Faux Amethyst Post Earrings / Vintage American Antique

This piece is a vintage jewel from inventory. It was acquired from a jewelry dealer. Although it's part of the inventory, due to its age, there might be minor imperfections or slight signs of oxidation and darkening. We've made an effort to capture these details using magnification and photographs. The quality of this piece is excellent, but it is a pre-owned item. Please refrain from comparing it to new items or holding it to exacting standards. 🙏🏻 ⚜️ Year: 1983 ⚜️ Condition: Appears unused, overall in good condition. Please examine the photos closely. ⚜️ Earring Backs: AVON ⚜️ Materials: Alloy, Faux Amethyst ⚜️ Approximate Size: 1.3*1.6cm ⚜️ Earring posts are surgical steel, designed to be less allergenic (as noted on the box). However, if you have a very sensitive constitution, we do not recommend them. 👀 Please note that measurements are taken with a measuring tape, so slight discrepancies are normal. Since jewelry is not perfectly square, the dimensions provided represent the longest and widest points. 🖤 This listing is for a pair of earrings, including their original box. Other items shown in photos are for staging purposes only. **Before You Purchase:** ◆ Please message us with any questions before buying. ◆ For jewelry from the 1940s-1980s, it's nearly impossible for the metal to be free of fading, discoloration, or rust spots and minor imperfections. Please be aware of this. ◆ We strive to present the items clearly in photos on our listing page. Please examine the images and descriptions carefully. ◆ Vintage jewelry inherently shows signs of age and wear from its journey through time. ◆ Items in this shop will not be altered (e.g., clip-on earrings converted to post earrings). ◆ If you are new to "Vintage Jewelry," we strongly advise you to consider carefully before making a purchase. ◆ If an item arrives damaged and unwearable, a refund can be issued. However, refunds will not be provided for reasons such as the item not meeting expectations, size discrepancies, color variations, or damage not incurred during shipping. __________________________________________________ **About the Brand:** Avon's history began in 1886. Initially known for fragrances, it was the first company in history to offer women the opportunity to earn money by doing something they loved. Representatives offered cosmetics and perfumes, and in 1963, a piece of jewelry was first offered as a gift with purchase. In 1970, due to numerous customer requests, AVON launched its own jewelry line – AVON Jewelry. The company's first collection was called "The Precious Pretenders." Large-scale advertising campaigns in the United States made these decorative pieces incredibly popular among women. AVON jewelry holds a significant place among beloved jewelry manufacturers. Collectors of vintage costume jewelry particularly appreciate the pieces released in the 1970s. Notable brands that collaborated with AVON include Ungaro and Swarovski, Centennial, Trifari, and WN. In the 1990s, Hollywood film star Elizabeth Taylor collaborated with the company's designers on several lines of jewelry named in her honor. Even today, AVON jewelry continues to delight women with its quality and affordable prices.
