Robert Lee Morris Matte Gold Plated Multi-Cross Chandelier Earrings

About the Item

Exotic Bold Gold drop dead chandelier earrings by Robert Lee Morris are lightweight and dramatic fun. Easy to wear clips, the design is composed of many cast element using the cross theme. Created in 1992 as part of the huge trend in fashion and jewelry of crosses and crucifixes. Partially spawned by Madonna who wore multiple crucifixes as part of her naughty Catholic girl persona, crosses were rampant in design. Robert was one of the leaders of this trend, and had been making cross themed jewelry from as early as 1980. Madonna wore one of his more chunky crosses in the movie Dick Tracey. These super fun whimsical earrings have many moving parts, with little teardrop hangings to add spice to these statement evening earrings. 18k gold plated brass and very rare.

Robert Lee Morris Gold Plated Mask Brooch, 1982
By Robert Lee Morris
Located in New York, NY
This very large and bold brooch, (5"x3") is a life size face mask, created by molding warm wax onto a mannequin face and casting it in brass, and then plated in 24k gold. The pinback is a double pin to secure the substantial metal onto fabric safely. The Robert Lee Morris mask was taken from the mannequin fashioned after the famous model Sayoko Yamaguchi, so there is an unusual Asian feel to this piece. There are two rings that come off the sides of the mask if one wanted to wear this as a necklace using ribbon or cord. A very dramatic fashion accessory, this piece of jewelry is also a free standing sculpture, elegant lying on a coffee table or desk as art. This mask was created in 1982 when Robert was working with the fabulous Japanese designer Kansai Yamamoto and Sayoko was his constant companion. The mask itself seems very relevant again as the trend in oversized high fashion gold accessories coming out of Paris these days is being influenced by Daniel Roseberry...
