Dapped Filigree Hoops

When a company is as old as Guyot Brothers is, it's nearly impossible to guess what an item in the line was originally designed for. The records certainly go back for decades, but there are very few notes on how the item was to be used, and only sometimes is the customer's name listed. The company made a lot of items for button manufacturers, so it's quite possible this particular center pierce and dap was a rendition developed along that line from the original flat filigree that was already in production. The curious person in me would like to know, but we can't have everything. Fortunately, these dapped filigree hoops make a fine pair of earrings. So I'll be satisfied with that.
