Vintage 14K Gold and Diamond Wing Shaped Earrings

About the Item

These 14k gold and diamond earrings are shaped like wings, with a graduated line of diamonds descending down each wing. The diamonds are bead set in 14k white gold, emphasizing the sparkle of the diamonds. The shape of the wings are elongated and sinuous—they mirror each other and can be worn facing either direction for two different symmetrical looks. The posts are located about 1/2” below the tops of the earrings, so that the earrings sit up high on the ear. The image of wings evokes powerful symbolism. They can represent angels and protection, as well as flight, movement, and ascendence. We love the subtle representation of wings in these earrings—the narrow, elegant shape of the earring makes them sleek and stylish; their wing shape is only noticeable at second glance. The earrings contain 20 diamonds total (10 in each earring). They have a combined weight of .5 carats. The diamonds are G-H in color and VS2-SL1 in clarity. They are round brilliant. The earrings are unmarked but acid test as 14k gold. The earrings backs are marked 14k. The earrings measure 1.75” x 3/8” each. Combined, they weigh 7.7 grams. The back posts are threaded, making them very secure. For pierced ears. Circa 1960’s.

They are tiny but strong, and almost always adorable. Part of our “Cute as a Button” collection...

Signature 14K Gold Winged Foot Hermes Charm
Located in Venice, CA
Talaria, or winged sandals, are the ancient symbol for messengers. Hermes, the Greek god of sports, is symbolized through the runner's winged foot. He was also the god of poetry and trickery since he was known as a witty and quick thinker, always on his feet.
