About the Item
Elegant and sculptural, these vintage Italian earrings from the 1980s are crafted in rich 18K yellow gold and designed in a dramatic shell motif. Each earring features a striking swirl of polished gold accented by a deep black onyx inlay and seven brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling approximately 2.00 carats. The diamonds are pavé-set at the base, adding a refined sparkle to the bold, curved form. Weighing 24.57 grams, the earrings measure 1.5 x 0.75 inches and are secured with comfortable omega clip backs. Their fluid silhouette and contrasting textures evoke the glamour of Italian statement jewelry from the era. Signed and exceptionally preserved, these earrings make a timeless addition to any fine jewelry collection.
