Details

A flamboyant pair of half hoop earrings from the mid 20^th Century decorated with a row of pale blue, oval cut paste stones and sparkling, brilliant cut diamante that together simulate diamonds and sapphires. 

The hoops are crafted in solid silver and have been gilded in yellow gold. They have a subtle twist to the design allowing a second collection of stones lined on the inside to sparkle in the background, creating the illusion that the entire hoop is encrusted, inside and out.     

They’re an extravagant and highly distinctive pair and fitted with secure lever back clips.
