Pair of vintage ethnic wooden and stone artisanal-style earrings
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This pair of earrings features a strong ethnic aesthetic, typical of vintage handcrafted work. Each earring is elongated ovoid in shape, with a domed face and a surface finely carved with geometric patterns and wavy lines. The patterns are in relief, giving a textured and tactile appearance, and are reminiscent of traditional symbols or ornaments.
The contrast between the two visible materials is clear: a smooth part with a natural wood appearance, in a light to medium brown hue, and a stony-looking part, with mottled cream-beige and brown shades, carved on the surface. The combination of these two elements evokes manual craftsmanship, with a raw and authentic finish.
The earrings are arranged side by side on a carved wooden piece of furniture, which highlights their volume and the quality of the decorative work. No fastening system or clasp is visible in the photo, the shown side being entirely dedicated to decoration. The two pieces are similar but show slight variations in the pattern cutting, highlighting a handcrafted character.
The natural patina and color contrasts suggest an old or vintage item, consistent with the description. The whole displays a beautiful harmony between the wood aspect and the carved part, for a decorative rendering that is both sober and evocative of ethnic jewelry from the 70s-80s.
The general style, organic shape, and patterns evoke tribal or folk influences, frequently searched on eBay under "ethnic earrings", "tribal jewelry", or "artisan vintage".
