Vintage Napier Ribbed Dome Clip Earrings

Polished ridges arc across a domed half-hoop form — simple in concept, precise in execution, and exactly the kind of piece Napier was making when the brand was at its most considered. The "Pat. Pend." stamp on the clip back dates these to the period when Napier was actively refining its earring hardware, a detail that places them firmly in the 1950s–1960s. Minor wear consistent with age; the silver tone is largely intact and the clips function well.
