Are these earrings or some sort of pin or brooch?

Hello,

 

Can someone help me identify these? I have never seen a backing/clasp like this before. They are even marked (L)eft & (R)ight. I believe they are right side up in the photos because the letters are.

I'd be very grateful if someone could help me identify them. Thanks!

No, these are just earrings.  These were made by Hillcraft and Castlecraft.  They are called Wingbacks.

Though the beauty may be in the butterfly, the struggle and growth occur in the cocoon.

Thanks so much! It looks like the little old lady who owned them didn't know what they were either! She inserted the wire into the wings! That must be why the wires are bent. I only just noticed there is a mark on the wires, that says "Wingback PAT 2414882" Now that I know what they are, I just had to try them on... they're cool!

 

Thanks again!
