About the Item

Created in France in the 1920s, these hoop earrings are set with onyx and diamonds. Each is designed as a slightly arched top suspending a free hanging circular hoop, set throughout with French-cut onyx and old single-cut diamonds, millegrain accents, with post findings. From a body of striking earring designs that were among Cartier's most popular styles of the 1920s, these superb hoops are light, refined and ultramodern. Item #: ER-21786 Artist: Attributed to Cartier Country: France Circa: 1923-1929 Dimensions: 1.25" length, 1.00" width. Materials: 152 old single-cut diamonds (with approximate total weight 3 carats with VS clarity and H/I color grade); 66 french-cut onyxs; Platinum Signed: Unsigned, findings with French assay stamp and maker's mark for ME. Literature: A design drawing of this earring style, one of a group set in platinum with pierced findings, dating from 1923-1929, is held in the archives of Cartier London: see Earrings: From Antiquity to Present, by Daniela Mascetti and Amanda Triossi, p. 154. Macklowe Gallery Curator's Notes: These significant earrings appear among a group of popular Cartier designs, many featuring jade and onyx hoops, some apparently inspired by Asian art. Several styles were set with flat "bi" discs, Chinese artifacts that first appeared in the Neolithic era, associated with royalty and thought to symbolize heaven. As part of their original body of Deco work, Cartier designers integrated these ageless forms into their modern geometric aesthetic and advanced platinum techniques.

French Art Deco Lapis, Jadeite and Diamond Pendant Earrings
Located in New York, NY
Made circa 1925, these Art Deco platinum, lapis, and jadeite pendant earrings were created in Paris. Each elongated, articulated form is designed as a circular diamond top suspending a cascade of tapering old single-cut diamond links highlighted by a jadeite "bi" and a lapis drop, with millegrain accents and original screwback findings. Graceful and lightweight, these extra long, classic French Art Deco earrings are exquisitely made, comfortable, and imbued with colorful, sparkling movement. Item #: ER-21789 Country: France Circa: 1925 Dimensions: 3.00" length, 0.50" width. Materials: Lapis lazuli; Jadeite; 36 old single-cut diamonds (approximate total weight 0.86 carat); Platinum Gram Weight: 9.5 g. Signed: French assay marks for platinum, Victor Réard maker's mark on findings Macklowe Gallery Curator's Notes: These delicate and lively pendant earrings are rare survivals from the Art Deco period. They were among the most beloved styles of the 1920s, their markedly elongated forms complementing short hair styles and vertical flowing gowns with flexible trim. Very often, 1920s earrings were shortened later, falling victim to changing hairstyles and couture. On the original findings is the mark of a specialist Parisian workshop located in the Marais, Victor Réard. The workshop was founded in 1921 as the ultimate successor to Achille Leroy. Historically, the workshop had produced refined parts and materials- enamels, secret closures, special necklace clasps, stone mountings, and other findings, for important firms such as Maison Boivin.
