Arman Suciyan Diamonds Sapphire Silver and White Gold Earrings
Located in Paris, IDF
"Goddess Wing " Earrrings with Ear jackets by Arman Suciyan at Second Petale Gallery. "The main heroine of my Odyssey collection is a female goddess who travels faster than light in the cosmos in the form of energy. In this form, she takes on a perfect drop-shaped form, which I call a 'spirit' form. As the goddess finds a suitable planet, she begins her descent to set things in motion to accommodate life, and her spirit lives on in beings that flourish on that planet for millions of years to come. The 'Godess Wing ' earrings are the evolution where her spirit manifests itself in new life forms, taking on new natural organic textures." - Arman Suciyan Silver is black rhodium plated. Earring can be worn without the ear jackets. Ear posts are 18 k white gold. Black enamel applied design details. About the Gemstones : Brown Diamonds : 2.33 ct Orange Sapphires : 0.95 ct Total stones : 288 ABOUT the CREATOR ARMAN SUCIYAN: COVETED Arman Suciyan lives and works in Istanbul, Turkey. His career as a goldsmith began at the age of 15. Since then, he has continued to perfect his skills (at Bazzar, a renowned jewelry manufacturer in Istanbul, the prestigious Kent Institute of Art & Design, Stephen Webster's workshop) and, since 2004, Arman has been developing his own creations. His collections are futuristic and daring. He works mainly with silver, in combination with bronze and gold.

Diamond, Pearl and Antique Drop Earrings

Earrings are a timeless accessory. Women have been wearing studs and hoops in civilizations as far back as Ancient Egypt. Diamond drop earrings, pearl versions and other antique drop earrings have a long history as well.

While hoops will always be beautiful, drop earrings hold their own as dazzling accessories, and jewelry designers have explored different variations on this style of earring over time.

Although the term is often misapplied, true drop earrings are characterized by a long lean line ending in a pear-shaped stone that drops just below the earlobe. These accessories were popular in the Art Deco era, which encompassed the 1920s and ’30s and ushered in a very distinct look in jewelry design.

There were many influences on Art Deco jewelry; among them, the excavation of the tomb of King Tut in 1922. “Egyptomania” left an indelible mark on all of the major jewelry houses, from Cartier to Van Cleef & Arpels, Boucheron and Georges Fouquet. Today, the popularity of long Art Deco drop earrings can be attributed to the influence of Coco Chanel. These earrings are frequently characterized by simple shapes, clean lines and an integration of colorful stones such as blue sapphires, emeralds and rubies to accent the pieces’ diamonds. Indeed, during the 20th century, as technology for diamond cutting improved, diamond drop earrings and other diamond jewelry came into wide popularity. Formal examples of diamond drop earrings pair perfectly with a cocktail dress or fancy pantsuit, while gem-set and gold drop earrings make great daytime accessories.

While there are at least several types of earrings you could be wearing right now, drop earrings work well for anyone who favors a minimalist look. Whatever the occasion, find a wide range of antique, diamond and pearl drop earrings on 1stDibs.
