The material that the maple leaves are made of is hard and cold to the touch, definitely not plastic. There is 14kt markings on all three pieces of jewelry. The earrings are clip on and there is quite a bit of ornate gold on all three pieces. Each piece has 2 small diamonds accents. You can clearly see the vein’s that were carved on each maple leaf stem. And there is a lot of carved detail on each piece.
The Maple brooch is 1 1/2 in (size of leaf) the stem of the brooch is 2 in long. Each earring is 1 in (maple leaf) and the spine/vein’s are 1 1/2 in each.
These items were my Grandmother’s pieces which were given to me.
