Antique French LampworkCarvedGlass TuttiFrutti Brass Clip Earrings
About the Item
These antique early-20th-Century French carved lampwork glass bead earrings depict berries and leaves. On each earring, this fruit salad dangles on a single ring that drops from a round convex green "stem", which is attached to miniature brass clips.
Such colorful jewelry by Parisian glass artisans beginning in the early 1920s inspired the "tutti-frutti" design trend of the Art-Deco period. Fine jewels in fruit-salad designs that also echoed Mughal Empire antiques were introduced by Cartier. Then tutti-frutti was internationally appropriated in costume jewelry with poured glass to mix with crystals and faux pearls--especially by Coco Chanel, Miriam Haskell, and Alfred Philippe at Trifari who had launched his design career at Cartier. This increased the fame of Parisian glass-workshops on which they relied, such as Louis Rousselet and Maison Gripoix.

- MiriamHaskell 1945 CrystalRosesMontees Filigree Glass Enameled ClimberEarringsBy Frank Hess for Miriam HaskellLocated in Chicago, ILBefore the brand signature was added in 1947, Miriam Haskell's first designer Frank Hess since 1926 designed these asymmetrical Baroque-style climber earrings with hand-painted white-and-ecru enamel leaves, crystal and glass beads, and Russian-gold gilt metal flowers, which are attached to a thick filigree branch that launched the post-war style of covering wires used to attach roses montees and beads behind an additional filigree plate. A similarly constructed and shaped pale-blue pair of climbers dated 1945 are in the renowned Barbara Berger museum-exhibited costume-jewelry collection. Characteristic of the materials favored by Hess for his designs, the clear rosette-cut rhinestones, intricate gilt-metal decorations, and white round glass beads were handcrafted in France by Parisian Louis Rousselet, who was among the first paruriers for Coco Chanel's couture clothing since the 1920s. In contrast to bold costume-jewelry by Chanel using...Category
