Beautiful silver bracelet and screw back earrings (unmarked but tested, slightly lower purity than sterling) circa the turn of the century, late 1890s to 1900s.

The bracelet and earrings are set with operculum shells, which come from a particular type of freshwater snail.

These unusual and striking shells resemble eyes and were very popular during the Victorian era.
