Vintage Mexico Sterling Silver Jade Earrings Ear Clips
A striking pair of vintage Mexican modernist earrings in sterling silver, set with vivid green jade cabochons, exemplifying the bold yet elegant design sensibility of mid-century Taxco silverwork. Each earring is built on a large, gently domed oval silver plaque with softly upturned edges, its broad surface left mostly plain so the eye is drawn to the gemstone at its heart. Centered within each is an elongated oval cabochon of richly saturated apple-green jade, bezel-set in a smooth silver collar that lifts the stone proudly from the surface. The jade displays a lively, almost luminous green with subtle internal striations and a smooth polished dome that catches and reflects light, lending the pieces a fresh, vibrant focal point. The contrast between the cool grey-silver field and the brilliant green stone is dramatic and sophisticated, a hallmark of the period's modernist taste for clean forms paired with bold natural color. The fittings are clip-back ear clips, ideal for non-pierced ears and consistent with vintage manufacture. In terms of condition, the jade cabochons appear intact and glossy, well seated within their bezels and free of obvious chips. The sterling shows a soft, satiny patina with light scratching and faint surface wear across the broad oval faces, honest evidence of age that can be polished brighter if preferred, though the matte tone flatters the stone beautifully. The substantial size gives these real presence as statement earrings, while the smooth contours keep them comfortable and wearable. They suit both daytime and evening looks and pair effortlessly with neutral or green-toned wardrobes. Collectors of Mexican silver, jade jewelry and mid-century modern design will appreciate the confident scale, the quality bezel work and the timeless appeal of green jade, long prized as a symbol of harmony and good fortune. A distinctive, eye-catching pair that balances minimalist form with luxurious natural color.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)
Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.
This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
