Trifari Fruit Salad Earrings & Pendant

This set is really not a set! The earrings are marked Trifari Pat. Pend.and have the fruit salad stones in frosted glass color. They have clips and measure 1 1/8” by 5/8”. The pendant is not for a chain, although it could be used that way. I think it is the bottom piece of a necklace.

There is also a pin Patented 1948 with the same piece hanging from it!
