Faceted Black Jade Inverted Black Diamond Silver Hex Drop Earring, Geoffrey Good
Located in Dallas, TX
One-of-a-Kind Hedra Drop Earrings by renowned jewelry maker Geoffrey Good featuring a beautiful pair of natural, untreated Wyoming black jade faceted briolettes swinging from handmade, high-polished sterling silver hedra stud elements embedded with shimmering inverted black diamonds, and finished with sterling silver posts and backs. About the Maker - Geoffrey Good discovered his passion for jewelry in college after designing a pair of earrings for his girlfriend out of glass-scrap materials. After earning a degree in jewelry design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, Geoffrey apprenticed with master jeweler Klaus Wisskirchen, assisting in the creation of jewelry for prestigious firms, including Cartier© and Christie’s©. Opening his studio at the turn of the millennium, Geoffrey began implementing exotic woods and uncommon, natural gemstones into his collections. Influenced by his personal travel, his pieces took on the form of African, European, and Far-Eastern decorative arts and style. "I like to see evidence that things have come from the earth," says Geoffrey, a native Virginian. "There’s a fine line between rough and refined, and I’m always trying to straddle that line." Profiled in The New York Times and working with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Geoffrey has created pieces for both the Grammy and Academy Awards, fashion designers Alexander Wang and Vena Cava...

Diamond, Pearl and Antique Drop Earrings

Earrings are a timeless accessory. Women have been wearing studs and hoops in civilizations as far back as Ancient Egypt. Diamond drop earrings, pearl versions and other antique drop earrings have a long history as well.

While hoops will always be beautiful, drop earrings hold their own as dazzling accessories, and jewelry designers have explored different variations on this style of earring over time.

Although the term is often misapplied, true drop earrings are characterized by a long lean line ending in a pear-shaped stone that drops just below the earlobe. These accessories were popular in the Art Deco era, which encompassed the 1920s and ’30s and ushered in a very distinct look in jewelry design.

There were many influences on Art Deco jewelry; among them, the excavation of the tomb of King Tut in 1922. “Egyptomania” left an indelible mark on all of the major jewelry houses, from Cartier to Van Cleef & Arpels, Boucheron and Georges Fouquet. Today, the popularity of long Art Deco drop earrings can be attributed to the influence of Coco Chanel. These earrings are frequently characterized by simple shapes, clean lines and an integration of colorful stones such as blue sapphires, emeralds and rubies to accent the pieces’ diamonds. Indeed, during the 20th century, as technology for diamond cutting improved, diamond drop earrings and other diamond jewelry came into wide popularity. Formal examples of diamond drop earrings pair perfectly with a cocktail dress or fancy pantsuit, while gem-set and gold drop earrings make great daytime accessories.

While there are at least several types of earrings you could be wearing right now, drop earrings work well for anyone who favors a minimalist look. Whatever the occasion, find a wide range of antique, diamond and pearl drop earrings on 1stDibs.
