The Details...
These earrings feature a circular design constructed from yellow silk thread and milk glass cabochons. The earrings have a gilt metal filigree backing and they are clip on. The earrings feature an adjustable screwback clip produced exclusively for Haskell by the AroSac company, which can be tightened and slackened for the comfort of the wearer. They are signed - 'MIRIAM HASKELL' is stamped around the circular panel, which attaches the clip to the earring and 'HASKELL' is also stamped onto the back of the clip. The earrings measure 2.25cm in diameter.
A Short History...
These earrings illustrate that the Haskell company always worked to allude to its heritage. Produced in the 1960s, these earrings resemble the make do and mend inspired pieces manufactured by Haskell in the Forties. The earrings were produced when Robert Clark was head designer. He loved achieving three dimensional effects with filigree. We can identify these earrings as being an early 1960s piece because the adjustable screwback on these earrings was utilised in the earliest part of the decade.

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.

Very Good - A faint hint of oxidisation to one link, a tiny element of ‘smokiness’ to the tip of one teardrop stone and behind one round stone, the tiniest scuff on one pearl. These elements are only visible upon very close examination. They do not detract from the appeal and rarity of the piece.
