The Details...
These gilt metal earrings feature a filigree floral design set with teardrop, oval and round clear rhinestones. All of the stones are faceted and claw set. They are clip on and signed on the reverse of each clip with 'Robert' in script lettering. They measure 3.25cm x 2.25cm.
A Short History...
These earrings are the epitome of mid-century glamour. Not only are they evocative of the cocktail style popularised in the 1950s - evidently fake, but nontheless elegant - they represent the influence of nature upon fifties jewellery. Indeed, couturiers, such as Dior and Balenciaga, were heavily influenced by floral motifs and it is no surprise that jewellery manufacturers like Robert were producing pieces that echoed Parisian trends.
Wear it With...
These earrings are the ultimate vintage bridal accessory - wear them with a floral lace gown to compliment the gilt metal flowrs in the earrings.
The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:
- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.
- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.
- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.
- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.
- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.

Condition Report:
Very Good - The screw back mechanisms on these earrings are slightly different from each other, indicating that one of them is perhaps not original to the earrings. This is only apparent upon very close examination. It does not affect the appearance of the earrings when they are worn and both mechanisms work well.
