David Webb Diamond Earrings 18k Gold Certificate of Authenticity Estate Jewelry

About the Item

A magnificent pair of diamond earrings by David Webb in 18k gold. Designed as huggie earrings with clip-on closure, they were crafted by using metal granulation technique. Multiple gold droplets were staged in the graduated horizontal rows to shape the earrings. The surface resembles shaggy terrycloth made of gold. The top of the earrings is embellished with diamonds. The brilliant-cut gems are staged in platinum, with the lines of the gold droplets dividing the diamond stripes. Granulated “shaggy” gold along makes these earrings stand out. And sparkly diamonds, generously adorning the piece, elevate the look to the top of luxury and glamour. These David Webb earrings come with a certificate of authenticity and original box. The Webb earrings are made of 18 karat yellow gold, platinum and round brilliant cut diamonds (G-H color, VS clarity, approximately 6.30 carats total). The diamonds are set in platinum which accentuates the diamonds whiteness. The vintage earrings measure 1 ½” x ¾” x 5/8” (3.3 x 2 x 1.8 cm) and weigh 39.3 grams. The Webb vintage earrings are stamped with David Webb maker's mark, hallmarks for 18 karat gold and platinum. The earrings are clip-on, posts can be added. About David Webb Brand: David Webb’s innovative and distinctive creations left an indelible mark on the jewelry industry. Webb’s career spanned from the 1940s until his passing in 1975. Throughout this time his designs challenged conventional ideas of jewelry. His distinctive style was embodied in bold and extravagant designs. Webb’s iconic contributions to jewelry making was his use of animal motifs. He captured the beauty of various creatures, from turtles and frogs to lions and tigers. These animal-inspired pieces not only showcased Webb's extraordinary craftsmanship but also appealed to a wide range of clients. David Webb's unique approach to jewelry design lastingly impacted the industry, inspiring countless designers to explore new artistic avenues. His legacy continues to influence contemporary designers to create pieces that are works of art. About Vintage Jewelry: Vintage jewelry is a broad subject which contains multiple aspects to discuss. We decided to answer a few basic questions to give a general introduction to the subject. So, what is vintage jewelry? Why is it so appealing? And what's the best way to buy vintage jewelry online? In the industry, different sellers and makers have different opinions on the time period when vintage jewels were made. Here at Nadine Krakov, we consider vintage as anything being made between 50 and 100 years ago. Therefore, all jewelry produced from 1930s to 1980s is called vintage. This time frame is comprised of Art Deco, Retro and Mid-Century. Why do we love vintage jewelry so much? It’s all about the quality of the make and - of course - the aesthetic. Vintage pieces were mostly made by hand or at least hand-finished while modern jewels are mainly cast. As the lifestyle back in the days was much slower, jewelry makers literally had more time in their hands. Skilled craftsmen honed their craft and reputation. They couldn’t allow a flimsy, poorly done piece to ruin that. Mass market jewelry didn’t exist at that time. Each little detail of a piece was executed thoughtfully and with high quality in mind.

About Vintage French Jewelry: Vintage French jewelry is highly valued by jewelry experts and enthusiasts. Since the late Renaissance, France has been established itself as one of the world trendsetters in art and fashion. A quick look at the top 5 French jewelry designers — Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Hermes, Chaumet, Chanel — describes French level of greatness even better. What allowed France to reach such a high level in the jewelry world hierarchy? In a nutshell, it’s because of the apprenticeship system. In the beginning of 1950s in France anyone at the age 14 could start learning the craft. This way French jewelers, like no others in the world, gain a substantial portion of experience at the early age. Even non-designer jewels were produced by the highly skilled masters. Most modern jewelry is not handcrafted anymore, and mass market-oriented production is prevailing. Jewelry designs are streamlined to use as little hand labor as possible. That’s why today vintage French jewelry is in such high demand. About Vintage Jewelry: Vintage jewelry is something we can talk about for days. Since the subject is that big and has multiple aspects to discuss, we’d like to focus on the most important parts of it. So, what is vintage...
