The Tiffany & Co. Elsa Peretti Apple earrings are iconic, organic jewelry pieces shaped like stylized apples. Designed by the legendary Elsa Peretti, these retired or vintage collector's items are primarily found on the secondhand luxury market in sterling silver and 18k yellow gold. On the back of the Apple motif, the smooth, flat reverse side of each apple is crisply engraved or stamped with the hallmarks. Because of the petite size of the mini apple studs, these markings are tiny and require a jeweler’s loupe to read clearly. They are typically broken into three separate markings across the backs: - T & Co. (or Tiffany & Co.) - © Peretti (Elsa Peretti's signature mark) - 750 (the 18k gold stamp) Unfortunately the butterfly backings aren’t the originals, however are gold plated. Had worn for a couple of days however found the original backings to be very uncomfortable & dug into skin behind ear! Comes in original presentation box, incl. original Tiffany eggshell blue box and bag! Bought at Tiffany’s & Co. flagship store on 5th Avenue, New York. USD $705 (NZD $1,200)
