Vintage retro earrings, stylized face, silver finish, 80s
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This lot consists of a pair of vintage costume earrings in a retro style, with a trapezoidal geometric shape and an antiqued silver finish. Each earring features a stylized face in relief, evoking an African or ancient aesthetic, with chiseled details on the headdress and necklace. The design, intentionally massive and angular, recalls 1980s fashion, marked by graphic and expressive jewelry.
The surface presents dark and light nuances, accentuating the material effect and the depth of the motifs. The faces are finely detailed, with visible engraving work on the headdress and breastplate. The contours are sharp, and the asymmetrical cut of the earrings creates a mirror effect when the two pieces are placed side by side.
The visible fastenings suggest a mounting for pierced ears, with a classic post system. The set is presented on a mustard yellow fabric, highlighting the contrast between the metallic patina and the warm background. No markings or signatures are visible on the exposed face.
The overall style is assertive, ideal for showcasing on dressy occasions or for accessorizing a minimalist outfit. The visible patina and oxidation marks accentuate the vintage character of the piece.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. The patinated appearance and oxidation marks are visible on the front, with no chips or apparent missing parts in the photographed area.
