About the Item
Exceptional one-of-a-kind large aquamarine diamond and black onyx earrings attributed to Mauboussin Paris and set in 18 karat yellow gold. These impressive earrings are a vintage creation dating to 1980s and are emblematic of the bold French high-jewelry glamour of that era. The large aquamarines at the earrings’ center feature an ever-elegant emerald-step-cut, and each stone weighs approximately 11 carats. The aquamarines display a rich and lively blue color that lights up beautifully as the earrings are worn. They are also characterized by fine clarity. The vivid aquamarine gemstones float on top of round 18 karat yellow gold base which is masterfully inlaid with black onyx and encrusted with sparkling fine white diamonds. The diamonds total approximately 2.5 carats. The juxtaposition of vivid blue aquamarines against elegant black onyx and a sumptuous frame of glittering diamonds makes for an incredibly sophisticated and chic statement jewel. The earrings are in excellent condition and bear French hallmarks of the period. Also available under separate listings are a bracelet and necklace from the same jewelry suite.

Mauboussin
During the roaring ’20s, Paris saw a confluence of wealthy and creative people flock to the city from all over the world, like artists, writers, princes and singers. Designer Georges Mauboussin understood the vibrant and cosmopolitan spirit of the time, and at the jewelry house he would propel to fame, Mauboussin, he became an iconic creator of Art Deco jewelry, using jade, lapis lazuli, pearls and other precious materials imported from around the globe.
The Mauboussin brand owes its success to expertise with precious metals and gems and its illustrious clientele. The fine jewelry house, originally founded in Paris in 1827 as the Maison Noury, is known for being highly experimental with mountings for diamonds, finding inspiration in fields like aeronautics (Georges’s son Pierre Mauboussin got into the airplane engineering business in the late 1920s) and filing patents for many of its inventions.
This modern sensibility drew royal clients from the Middle East and Egypt (Queen Nazli owned several dazzling pieces), as well as Hollywood stars like Marlene Dietrich and Charlie Chaplin. However, its most significant royal relationship was with the stylish maharaja of Indore, Yashwant Rao Holkar II, who designated Mauboussin as his official purveyor in 1933. One of the maison’s legendary pieces for the maharaja is a necklace that uses two of the world’s most beautiful diamonds, the Indore Pears, part of the maharaja’s collection.
In its long history, Mauboussin has found creative and beautiful ways to incorporate the tastes of the time into its luxury jewelry, responding to movements like Cubism as well as crises like the Great Depression when it shifted to more affordable pieces that would be available to a larger audience. (From 1936 to 1953, Mauboussin also partnered with Trabert & Hoeffer to stay afloat following the Wall Street crash.) In the 1990s, the company expanded into perfume and watches. Galeries Lafayette acquired a majority stake in the company in 2019 with the jeweler continuing to showcase a dedication to its French heritage with an international approach to design.
