Georges Lenfant 18K Yellow Gold Clip-On Earrings, French, Circa 1970's
About the Item
An exceptional pair of vintage 18 karat yellow gold clip-on earrings, crafted by the esteemed Parisian master jeweler Georges Lenfant for John van der Vet, a prominent Belgian jeweler.

Executed in a bold yet wearable design, the earrings exhibit superb gold craftsmanship — with the surface intricately worked to create a dimensional woven effect. The clip-back fittings ensure comfort and security, making them ideal for both day and evening wear.

Antique Repoussé Garnet and 18K Gold Earrings
Located in Rotterdam, NL
Elegant 18 karat gold repoussé scrolling and articulated earrings from early 19th Century. The design reminds me of the lyre harp and set with beautiful faceted garnets. Which have different cut styles - oval, round and teardrop cuts and the gold around the garnets has a mille griffe design. The earrings showcase 18 garnets bezel set in this lovely mille griffe design. These types of earrings were typical of the romantic era of the Georgians and Victorians. During the Grand Tour in 18th century, the lyre is a popular symbol in antique jewelry and refers to music and 'heavenly' love. It was seen as an attribute of Apollo, the god of music, poetry and dance of the Ancient Greeks. The earrings are for pierced ears and the ear hook goes backwards through the ear and closes on top of the earrings.
