Grey mirrored glass 'leaf] necklace and earrings, Langani, Germany, 1970s

About the Item

An unusual and striking necklace and earrings from this German designer, always innovative and distinctive. Constructed with very small individual metal 'beads' that form the line of the necklace, large oval and faceted smokey grey/silvery flat back stones, feature at the front, like leaves. The earrings are simply a single oval faceted glass stone. Perfect for the Summer, with something casual and relaxed, also perfect for evening or Winter wear. The necklace carries the designer's characteristic 'signature' black bead, very close to the clasp , on the left hand side of the necklace - all Langani necklaces bear this 'signature'. The earrings are both signed with the name. Anni Lang was born in Stuttgart, Germany, and, after studying under Josef Hoffmann, she started up her own jewellery company in 1952. From that date until 1965, she created many distinctive and unusual pieces, at once sculptural and eye catching. In the 1970s she began a long association with Louis Feraud, the Paris couturier, creating striking metallic designs very different from her signature bead fantasies.
