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.

Gurhan 24K Gold Smoky Quartz Drop Earrings with Diamonds
By Gurhan
Located in Venice, CA
Gurhan 24K and 18K Gold Smoky Quartz Drop Earrings, 1990 These Gurhan earrings feature an elongated briolette cut smoky quartz drop, wrapped with hand hammered 24k gold. Th earring’s dangle is decorated with a diamond flower, bead set into 24k gold—an inverse of the gold and white circular motif that it is suspended from. The top piece is reminiscent of a sun, and the hand hammered gold catches light nicely and facets off beautiful patterns. Each earring contains 25 single cut diamonds that add a wonderful sparkle. Like all Gurhan pieces, these earrings were made in Turkey. Gurhan pioneered the return of pure 24k gold into contemporary jewelry. Because 24k gold is so soft, it is ideal for hand hammered texture, and these earrings are a lovely example of the hand hammered technique often found in Gurhan’s pieces. Gurhan begins his process at the jeweler’s bench...
