Pearl Earrings Handmade Midcentury

About the Item

Exquisitely hand-crafted, this pair of Midcentury (circa 1950s) earrings each feature ten fine 4mm cultured Akoya pearls encircling a coronet-set 5.9mm Akoya pearl. Surrounding each of the focal-point pearls is a circular base of finely twisted gold wire. The workmanship is impeccable -these could be by Buccalatti (they are not). The earrings are 21.37mm in diameter. Each earring bears an unreadable maker's mark and each earring tests as 15K gold. The pearls are high-quality with white body color and a soft pink overtone. A comfortable wire makes them easy to wear and the end of the wire slides under a bent loop for closure. Gorgeous, unique, and impressive.

By Ed Levin
Located in New York, NY
This is a stunning pair of early signed Ed Levin Mid-Century Modernist Dangle Drop Earrings in Sterling Silver with Pearls set in a black anodized silver disc. The earrings exude the classic early Ed Levin design and they dangle wonderfully from the ear. I love this design so full of kinetic energy. The earrings are Sterling Silver. The discs have anodized silver creating the black background. The black silver and pearls create a wonderful dramatic effect. The earrings bear the early mark of simply "Levin".
