Ed Levin Pearl Earrings Modernist Midcentury Dangle Drop Sterling Silver
By Ed Levin
Located in New York, NY
This is a stunning pair of early signed Ed Levin Mid-Century Modernist Dangle Drop Earrings in Sterling Silver with Pearls set in a black anodized silver disc. The earrings exude the classic early Ed Levin design and they dangle wonderfully from the ear. I love this design so full of kinetic energy. The earrings are Sterling Silver. The discs have anodized silver creating the black background. The black silver and pearls create a wonderful dramatic effect.
The earrings bear the early mark of simply "Levin".
