Cartier Style Emerald Cut Sapphire Crystal Brooch, Ear Crawler Demi Parure–1950s

About the Item

Though it is over a half century old, this exquisite earring and brooch set is as chunky, relevant and wearable as any modern costume jewelry. Fiery and brilliant, their centerpieces are their single emerald-cut crystals, which resemble Cartier gemstones. The surrounding light and dark blue faceted rhinestones gather and reflect further light for a set of remarkable glamour and substance. Curved ear crawlers featuring ¾” emerald-cut crystals surrounded by 4 and 6 mm faceted blue rhinestones; clip backs. Matching solitaire brooch with 1 1/8” wide emerald-cut crystal surrounded by 4 mm faceted blue rhinestones; rollover safety clasp. **please note: when light is shone through from behind, brooch crystal is a brighter, more vibrant blue than large crystals in earrings, but this color difference is virtually eliminated when brooch is worn. This suggests the earrings and brooch were a mismatched set, but the color inconsistencies are so negligible when brooch is worn that we have chosen to keep them together. material: round- and emerald-cut blue crystals, silver tone metal noteworthy: polish with soft cloth repairs: none condition: excellent with age-appropriate surface wear and minor color inconsistencies between brooch and earrings when unworn/side-by-side measurements: •ear crawlers• height: 1 ¾” width: 3/8” – 1 1/8” depth: ½” •brooch• height: 1 ¼” width: 1 ½” depth: 5/16” signature: no signature present
