Joanne, these remind me of the other earring I posted a photo of. Silver with red glass. What do you think?

Hillary, they are very cute! I think they are Kurdish (Iran Kurds) see page 281 of the book Jewellery from the Orient (Bir Collection) Wolf- Dieter Seiwert.

By accident I saw in the book Music for the eyes ,Textile of the people of Central Asia, these earrings too! They are weared by the Iran Yomut- Turkmen.. And are called gulak khalka. Maybe they are used by more ethnical groups in Iran
