Zolotas 'Chimera' Ear-Clips in 18 Karat Gold, Rubies & Diamonds

The most incredible pair of gold ear clips by perhaps the most famous modernist jeweller to have lived, Andrew Grima. Formed from 18 karat gold this 'nest' style pair of ear clips are crafted with satin finished gold bars which interconnect, each centring on an octagonal citrine and accented with baguette cut diamonds. The three dimensional clips are typical of the work by Grima in the 1960s and is reminiscent of some of the famed pieces he made for royalty and high society. The rear of the clips are marked for Haller Jewellery Company which is where Grima first began designing his jewels before forming his own company. Fully hallmarked with London hallmarks, the ear clips (and matching brooch) are assayed for 1965. To the rear there are hinged clips which are working well and are secure.

Perhaps a woman making a pretense of shyness or modesty to be beguiling. At the end of a spiral of round brilliant-cut diamonds set in 18K yellow gold, the rattler’s tail is subtly depicted using gold milgrain and negative space. If we can read meaning into the materials, the abrupt break in the diamond pattern provocatively suggests a presence of danger, as it is the viper’s tail that signals danger, which is also part of the allure. The Bulgari Serpenti is a legendary icon, first introduced over seventy years ago and produced in numerous spectacular renditions over the years to the present day. The original Bulgari Serpenti was created in the 1940s by Sotirio Georgis Bulgari (originally Sotirios Voulgaris from Greece), who founded the house in Rome in 1884. The Serpenti was portrayed as the seductive serpent from Greek mythology and made in the Tubogas style, or flexible tubular chain, which climbed the wrist like a sinewy snake and quickly garnered a cult following. Although not made in the three-dimensional signature segmented style, these coiled viper earrings...
