Ben-Amun Free Form Modernist AB Orange/Pink Glass Clip Earrings
By Ben Amun
Located in Clifton Forge, VA
These are such stylish modernist clip on earrings made by Ben-Amun and clearly marked on the back. The vibrant, iridescent pinkish orange glass with an aurora borealis AB (rainbow) finish, has a free form shape and the molded glass surface is nonuniform (it sort of looks like an iceberg). These earrings would add some fun to a classic outfit or would accentuate a funky vibe! They measure about 3/4 inch high and 1/2 inch wide and there is some slight finish loss on the back.
Thanks for visiting The Moody Carpenter...

Ben-Amun Modernist Mid Century Geometric Blue Red Black Glass Bangle Bracelet
By Ben Amun
Located in Clifton Forge, VA
What a wonderful modernist, geometric bangle bracelet this is, because it has a dull gray finish on the outside and a shinier finish on the low spots of the inside, I think it's possible that the original finish has almost completely worn off, but I love the industrial gray with the midcentury look of this piece and the 3/4 inch diameter red, blue and black glass cabochons are all vibrant in color and contrast nicely with the dull finish. It is a large piece of jewelry having a 2.5 inch inside diameter, 3.25 inch outside diameter and the geometric shapes project about one inch above and below the center band making the bracelet have a two inch total width. It is stamped in many places with the Ben-Amun mark.
Thanks very much for visiting The Moody Carpenter...

Ben-Amun Stylized Butterfly Gold Tone Pendant on Leather Cord
By Ben Amun
Located in Clifton Forge, VA
What an exotic bright gold pendant of a fancy butterfly with exaggerated antenna 0n the top and legs on the bottom. There are raised flowers on the wings, a beetle head and eyes and a double strand rolo chain dangling below, giving it a mythical effect. The pendant is knotted onto a long (32 inch) black leather cord which can be shortened easily by retying the knot on the top, the cord contrasts wonderfully with the high carat look of the gold finish on the butterfly. The pendant and cord are in excellent condition and look like they have never been worn.
Thanks so much for visiting The Moody...

Ben-Amun Faux Mabe Pearl Clip Earrings w/ Dangles
By Ben Amun
Located in Clifton Forge, VA
This is a fantastic pair of Ben-Amun clip on earrings with a large (about 7/8 inch diameter) vibrant faux mabe pearl surrounded by a rich, bright gold patterned frame with five lustrous bulbous pearl drops which graduate in size from each side to the center bottom. The earrings have incredible life from the bright gold and the shimmering pearls and large size measuring about 2 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide.
They are clearly marked on the back and come on their original Saks Fifth Avenue card. There are some slight imperfections and marks on the pearls that I have tried to photograph but none of them are noticeable from a distance.
