Help identify maker please

[lazymendoza]

These earrings were a gift from my mother years ago. I am unsure of the maker and quality. Please help. I appreciate your assistance in advance.

Welcome to the forum, lazymendoza. The photo is not very clear; please if possible retake on a white paper towel. We may be able to tell if the pearls are Akoya or Freshwater. It's unlikely we would be able to identify the maker. Is the back of the earring marked 14k or 585, 18k or 750?

This one is a little better. I can't get a straight pic because the earring rolls around.

the back of the other earring, as well as the butterfly clasps are marked 14k.

These are the clearest pics. Thanks again for your help! This is a wonderful site!

Thank you, these photos are clearer. My thought is that these are good quality freshwater pearls set in the 14k mountings. The oval drops are common in freshwater pearls. The luster seems more like freshwater than Akoya. In the photo with the pair of earrings, the top right pearl in the side view seems somewhat flattened, rather than very round, a plump button pearl possibly. You have a wearable and classic pair of earrings with great sentimental value.
