Vintage earrings Rebajes silver-plated star retro design

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

A pair of vintage clip-on earrings signed Rebajes, made of silver-plated metal according to the keywords. The design is distinguished by an original composition: each earring features a five-pointed star at the top, adorned with a stylized engraved "R," a characteristic signature of the Rebajes brand. Below the star, two superimposed spheres of different sizes complete the structure. The spheres are decorated with engraved star patterns, adding a decorative and textured dimension to the whole.

The visible surface of the metal shows a greyish patina, typical of vintage jewelry, with a slightly matte appearance and signs of wear that contribute to the piece's authenticity. The elements are articulated, giving the jewelry movement when worn. The fastenings are clip-on, visible on the back of the stars, suitable for unpierced ears.

The overall style evokes a retro inspiration, with a play of geometric volumes and material effects reminiscent of mid-century modern creations. The contrast between the angular shape of the star and the roundness of the spheres creates a strong visual balance, typical of designer costume jewelry from the 1950s to 1960s.

The silver-plated finish, mentioned in the keywords, adds a simple and elegant metallic touch. The engraved patterns reinforce the visual identity of the Rebajes brand, known for its sculptural and expressive creations, often made of hand-worked metal.

Presented on a cream velvet background in an antique box, the earrings are beautifully showcased, highlighting their vintage character and decorative potential. No major chips or missing parts are visible on the photographed sides, apart from the expected patina and some traces of oxidation.
