Large gilt and baroque pearl earrings, Chanel, 1980s.
About the Item
Classic pearl and gilt earrings , designed by Victoire de Castellane for Chanel, with a wide gilt 'thumb indented' border, in which is nestled a larger baroque pearl cabuchon. Very smart, a prime example of Castellane's oeuvre at Chanel at this time - and ulitmately very wearable!
Not much needs to be said about Coco Chanel, so famous and successful a designer is she!
Chanel opened her first boutique in 1924, many years in advance of what was to become a worldwide and continuing fashion. Whilst many disapproved of costume jewellery , praising fine or real jewellery, Chanel championed the merits of faux jewellery, often mixing both together, stating that real jewellery would no more enhance the wearer that faux! This supremacy of costume jewellery over real continued all through her career, (all of which is now legendary,through numerous books and films.), continuing right through to the creations of the house in the current day.

Unsigned smoke grey and soft brown cluster earrings, Schreiner of New York 1960s
By Schreiner of New York
Located in Greyabbey, County Down
A classic design in a very elegant colour combination from Schreiner of New York - sadly these earrings are unsigned, but are a well known and popular design from the New York manufacturer of always striking and glamourous designs. The subtle combination of a soft, almost peachy, brown coupled with a smokey shade of grey make them immediately noticeable when worn, and highly wearable!
Henry Schreiner started the Schreiner Jewellery Company in 1939 and was director until his death in 1954. His daughter and son in law continued with the business until 1977. In the 1950s he made jewellery for Christian Dior.
His jewellery is very distinctive for its use of unusual mounts and subtle colour combinations, using the finest quality rhinestones and crystals. He made exceptionally glamorous belts, bib necklaces, unusually coloured baroque brooches (his signature ‘ruffle’ brooch...
