They look like the kind of earrings a 1950s ingénue might have worn on a breezy afternoon, gold bows with a touch of theatrics. All curves and movement, they feel like a pair of little sculptures meant to brighten a face and tilt an ordinary day toward charming. There’s a sense of optimism in them, the kind that defined mid-century design: playful, lighthearted, aware that elegance doesn’t always need to take itself so seriously.

Handcrafted in about 1950, these earrings are made in 18 karat gold, unmarked but tested, with openwork wings of metal and polished three-dimensional detailing that catch the light beautifully. They measure 18.7 mm north to south, 20.6 mm across, and 3.4 mm deep, and together they weigh 3.9 grams. Designed for pierced ears with original posts.

Slip them on and you feel instantly lifted. They’re bright, delightful, and just unusual enough to spark compliments, the sort of earrings that make a day (and an outfit) instantly more fun.
