Materials and Features:

• Mirrored Swarovski Comet Argent Light Crystals: Features a dimensional cluster of premium Austrian bicone crystal beads (style #5301). The focal 9mm center bead and surrounding accents feature Swarovski's historical Comet Argent Light (CAL) vacuum-metallized coating applied to half of the bead surface, creating a bright tarnish-free silver mirror effect that contrasts with the clear crystal faces.

• Hand-Wired Perforated Disc Assembly: The crystals are individually positioned and locked down using a hand-woven structural silver-plated steel wire layout. The wires wrap tightly through a circular perforated base plate, creating a high-dome floral cluster geometry.

• Silver-Tone Base Metallurgy: Built upon a rigid, stamped steel base disk protected by an industrial silver-tone electroplated layer, providing a secure foundation for the complex wire runs.

• Dual-Texture Mechanical Backing: The reverse configuration exhibits manual wire twists and loops pressed flush against a polished base wheel, integrating seamlessly into a thick industrial clip hinge arm.

Type: Hinged paddle-back clip-on mechanism wired onto a perforated circular base disk.

Age/Origin: Circa 1966 / Austria / West Germany Export Sector

Marks: Unmarked (Attributed to the Austrian/West German export jewelry pool based on signature hand-wired perforated backplates and the use of authentic 1960s Swarovski CAL-coated bicone crystal components).

Measurements:

• Weight: 10.3g (combined weight)

• Thickness: 15mm total depth including the clip mechanism (9mm crystal dome depth alone)

• Dimensions: Oval silhouette measuring approx. 20mm x 17mm (0.875" x 0.625")

Condition: Very Good Vintage Condition. The Swarovski crystal facets are sharp with no flea bites, and the CAL silver-mirror coatings remain highly reflective with minimal foil wear. The internal steel wiring remains structurally rigid, and the silver-tone paddle clips provide strong, snappy mechanical spring tension.
