Elephant Button-Style Clip-On Earrings


Be ye GOP or simply fond of the handsome pachyderm, this fun pair is at home anywhere from a raucous caucus to a subdued garden party. Light as can be, these primarily plastic pack animals are embossed on a silver disk and surrounded by goldtone faux-filigre. And if that ain't enough alliteration for you, the metal clips clasp close to the lobe, comfortably confident in their padded, pleasant performance. To wit: they shan't fall off and you shan't feel 'em on.
These earrings are in fair condition. They are certainly solid and fixed, but the plastic is neither unmarred nor free of tarnish. But then, what self-respecting elephant isn't at least a little wrinkly at the joints?
