AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

A pair of retro fantasy earrings, as shown in the photo, composed of faceted beads in green and purple hues. Each earring features a dangling structure, formed by small translucent faceted beads, alternately mounted on a metal wire with a patinated finish. The ensemble offers a soft and luminous play of colours, typical of vintage costume accessories.

The overall shape is elongated, with a succession of beads arranged in a slight gradient, creating an elegant sense of movement. The visible hooks are of the classic type, suitable for pierced ears, and have a slightly matte finish. The beads, of similar size, are symmetrically arranged on each earring, accentuating the refined and decorative character of the set.

The choice of colours, pastel green and lavender purple, recalls the costume jewellery creations of past decades, often inspired by floral or spring themes. The surface of the beads is finely cut, which catches the light and enhances the sparkling effect, particularly visible in the photograph.

The mounting appears to be handmade, with attention paid to the details and assembly of the elements. No logo or signature is visible on the photographed side. The item is presented on a white textile background, highlighting the delicacy and contrast of the bead colours.

The hooks and metal wires show a discreet patina, consistent with a used antique accessory. The overall condition of the earrings appears good on the visible side, with no apparent chips or missing parts on the beads or the metal structure.

Condition

Used item sold as is, with a visible patina on the metal. The beads and mounting appear to be in good used condition on the visible side. Please examine the photo carefully to judge the exact appearance.

Did you know? Faceted bead costume jewellery was very popular in the 1960s-1980s, worn for its lightness and variety of colours. This type of mounting, combining metal wires and glass or resin beads, made it possible to create affordable and highly decorative accessories, often handmade or in small series.
