Patent Info: The patent that was eventually granted for these earrings was patent # 173,243 granted to Alfred Philippe for Trifari, Krussman & Fishel Inc. on Oct 12, 1954. (Click here to see the patent)
Size: They are approximately 1 inch tall and a little over 3/4 inch wide
Markings: Signed "TRIFARI" with a crown over the "T" and "Pat Pend" on the top of the clips
Closure: Clip on style earrings
Condition: The metal has some wear - even light corrosion on the back in one spot (see last photo) and the rhinestones have yellowed slightly with age (it looks worse in the pictures than it does in person). All in all still pretty good condition for jewelry that is over 60 years old!
