Pair of vintage opal obsidian natural stone retro earrings

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This pair of vintage earrings is distinguished by a refined composition of natural stones, combining opaline elements with dark fragments reminiscent of obsidian, in accordance with the provided keywords. Each earring features a harmonious alternation of milky-hued beads and deep black-looking stones, arranged in a vertical drop.

The earrings are mounted on sleeper clasps with an aged gold finish, with filigree work visible on the metallic beads located at each end. The structure highlights three types of elements: translucent square beads with an opalescent effect, dark pebbles with irregular shapes, and round beads with striated reliefs.

The contrast of materials and colors, between the softness of opaline and the depth of obsidian, gives these earrings a strong retro style, typical of costume jewelry from the second half of the 20th century. The set is presented here in a light textile case, which enhances the brilliance of the stones and the patina of the metal.

The lever-back clasp system, visible on the upper part, ensures a secure fit on the ear. No hallmark or manufacturer's mark is visible on the presented side.

The vertical cluster design, as well as the balance between natural pearls and metallic finishes, evokes vintage artisanal creations, while remaining understated and elegant for daily wear or special occasions.

Condition

Second-hand item, sold as is. The set shows a slight patina on the metallic parts, with no apparent structural defect on the visible side. The stones and beads show small natural irregularities, characteristic of this type of material.
