    The Details...

    These gold plated metal earrings are a drop design. They are detailed with navette cut, bronze tone rhinestones and round, small, turquoise rhinestones. These stones are multi-faceted and claw set. There are also large, round, pale blue rhinestones. These stones are set within fancy claw settings. The earrings are clip on. They measure 6.25cm x 1cm. 

    A Short History...

    These earrings are unsigned. However, the fancy claw settings for the pale blue rhinestones are the same as those used in pieces created by Countess Cissy Zoltowska. She designed costume jewels for some of Paris' most important designers in the 1950s and 1960s, including Cristóbal Balenciaga and Pierre Balmain. The eye catching colour way and high quality stones are also typical of the jeweller's work, who was know as 'Cis'. 

    Wear it With...

    The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:

    - Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.

    - Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.

    - Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.

    - Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.

    - If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
