These earrings currently have the original screwbacks but they can be converted to a post or wire if customer desires. (Conversion of earrings to posts or to screwback or clip is generally possible without negatively impacting the value of the jewelry, as long as any signature, stamp, stone, or workmanship of the item is not damaged).
Of course, items from the 1950s and earlier are generally not signed.
This pair of earrings is identical to a pair in Bassman, Zuni Jewelry, 2006, page 13.
