Earrings

[Kateharding]

I have the earrings in the photo, which I think belonged to my g-g-grandmother - seen in other photo around 1915.

The earrings look like entwined initials, E and M, which don’t fit with anyone obvious in the family.

I wondered if anyone knows about earrings from Victorian/Edwardian era - are these typical? Might they be second hand, so initials are not relevant? The family were not well off at all so I can’t imagine her ever affording personalised jewellery.

Any thoughts or general information would be appreciated.

Do they have any marks on the back?

[Kateharding]

No, no marks on back at all

I've tried to straighten it so that the letter(s) are clearer. It does seem to show an M but the pattern is very strange

Back of earring. Sorry don’t know how to make pics smaller.

Back reduced in size

Looking at the front again, it could be a W rather than an E.

Is there a three petal (?) form above the M. This seems to line up with the vertical piece that goes down the middle and seems to end in a type of root shape.

There doesn't appear to be any marks on the back.
