The Details...
These statement earrings feature a polished, gold plated crinkled 'C' shaped design. The earrings are detailed with small, round, colourless rhinestones. The earrings are clip on and they are signed. The reverse of one earring features an oval cartouche stamped with 'Scherrer Paris'. The diameter of each earring is 3.5cm.
A Short History...
1980s style can be effectively explained by the term 'power dressing'. Womenswear was tailored to challenge notions of who was 'boss' and costume jewellery was created to reflect fashion that showed control. Pieces, such as these earrings, were bold and flashy. Adornment in the eighties was a vocabulary for saying 'I'm in charge'.
Wear it With...
These statement earrings are perfect for pairing with evening tailoring.
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.
These whimsical and stylish 1950s earrings are clip on and unsigned.
