Retro faux celluloid
earrings
These retro faux celluloid earrings are
made of a hard plastic with a stud design. The combination of the
studs and the ivory colour replicates the look of an early celluloid
style.
They
are 3 cm in diameter by .7 cm at widest point. (1 1/4 by 1/4 in).
These quirky earrings are full of the fun
of the 1960's flower power decade. The petals appear to be made
from thinly moulded hard plastic, but have the look of ceramic.
The insides dangles are made from white metal with glass, metal and faux
blue pearl beads.
They
are 5.5 cm long by 3.5 cm wide. (2 by 1 3/8 in).
These are currently shown with the original clip fasteners, but we would
be happy to change them to a hoop for pierced ears at no extra charge.
Just send us an
email when you order.
The bow is a classic motif and is
currently being seen in this season's fashions. We think these
enamel covered delicate metal earrings date from the early 1950's.
They are 4 cm long by 1.6 cm wide. (1 3/4 by 5/8 in).
These
eye catching earrings are in good vintage condition.
We think these delightful blue and
white daisy plastic earrings belong to the 1950's. They would coordinate
well with several of the vintage and retro costume jewellery in our
summer collection.
They
are 2.1 cm in diameter (7/8 inch). They previously had a clip
attachment but we have converted them for pierced ears.
These
whimsical retro earrings are in good vintage condition.

the geometric shape of the earlier Art Deco period with the softness of

Deco Egyptian
Revival earrings
Another example of the Egyptian Revival style that was popular in the
Art Deco period. These semi circular earrings have raised designs
on the front over a textured background. The backs are marked 9.25
with a maker's mark of 'Noy Li'. There is revival detailing
on the stem and wire, which has a safety closure.
They are
3
cm h and 2.5 cm w (1 1/4 by 1 inches).
We have deliberately not over polished this sterling silver Egyptian
Revivaljewellery to preserve the contrast

Art Deco
silver and amethyst earrings

amethyst set at one end. The folds of the drape give a sense of
speed and movement, which is a recurring theme in the Art Deco period.
These are a small scale, just 1.5
cm h and .6 cm w (5/8 by 1/4 inch).

Semi circle enamel earrings
These colourful earrings are in a style that
closely resembles the Pierre Bex line. Pierre Bex
jewellery was manufactured in France from 1969 thru to the 80's,
from old moulds and using original toolings from the art deco
period. So, this is
jewellery that is a high quality retro copy of vintage art
deco, and is now about 30 years old!
Pierre Bex is characterised by classic art
deco styling, often a combination of metal tooling and enamel
with a clear coating that protects the design beneath.
These earrings are 1.7 cm high and 3 cm
across (5/8 by 1 1/4) in) and in good condition.

Enamel thin triangle
earrings
These vintage / retro style costume earrings are made up of three
triangular paper thin slices of enamelled metal. They are a lovely
shade of midnight blue and black. They hang as shown but also move
when in wear, so the overall shape changes. The triangle motif and
movement would fit with art deco jewellery, but these may have been made
later.
The largest triangle is 5 cm long (about 2 in) and about 1 cm (3/8 in)
at its widest point. The smallest is about 3 cm (1 1/4 in) long
and the same width.
These delightful enamel earrings are in good condition.
Please note that vintage and retro jewellery appearing below
this line have been sold.
Turquoise enamel
earrings
These enamel earrings have an Egyptian
Revival look about them. Egyptian Revival designs often interpreted
original gemstone inlays as brightly coloured enamels. These have
a varied smooth and brush texture that enhance the finish.
They
are 2.4 cm long by just over 3 cm wide. (1 by 2 3/8 in).
These
brilliantly coloured earrings are in good condition.
These exquisite Art Deco beauties look
like they are made from tortoise shell.
There is a subtle grain and, held
up to the light, the longer, thinner part of the drape is a rich brown
that
shows a cloud-like hazy stripe. The back has natural markings that
lend credence to the drape being made of an organic material. The folded
over part is a deep dark brown, almost black.
They are
a dramatic size, 6.5 cm by 1.9 cm (2.5 by 3/4 inches).
These
unique, graceful Art Deco earrings are in
good condition.

Pierre Bex style Art
Deco retro earrings
These are very much in the style of
Pierre Bex, who made Art Deco style earrings out of original toolings
from the 60's to the 80's in Paris. This elegant elongated shape
and motif were often seen in bar brooches.
They are 5 cm long by 1.1 cm wide. (2 by
3/8 in).
These
unusual vintage / retro earrings are in good condition.
These Art Deco shaped earrings are
not for the faint hearted. They are made from abalone shell and
constantly change hue as they reflect the colours around them.
In dull light, there are subtle hints of blue, green and pink in the
grains with a mainly grayish-brown background. However, in
any bright light, they dazzle with colour. Both earrings have many
shades, but in one the pink tinges show through more prominently than the blues and
greens. These colour variations are to be expected in a natural
material.
They
are 5 cm by 3.5 cm (2 by 1 /3/8 inches).
These
amazing chameleon-like earrings are in
good condition.

Daffodil flower
earrings
Just the earrings for a cool summer
dress. These hard plastic moulded earrings have an innocent, 1950's
look about them.
They
are about 2 cm in diameter (3/4 inch). They previously had a clip
attachment but we have converted them for pierced ears.
These
whimsical floral earrings are in good vintage condition.
These fanciful wooden earrings have the
Art Deco diamond shape and an additional Art Deco double triangle
motif on the gold tone attachment. If placed side by side, the
grains match and resemble a jigsaw puzzle piece.
They
are 3.5 cm long by by .7 cm wide (1 3/8 by 1/4 inches) and only about 1
cm thick.
These
quirky wooden Deco shaped earrings are in
good condition.
Ancient Egyptian jewellery had several revivals - including during the
Art Deco period, this time influenced by the discovery of Tutankhamen's
tomb in 1922. These stunners are varied shades of the
popular turquoise enamel in a
modified inverse fan shape. The gold tone lines accent the colour,
both enhanced by the movement of the earrings when worn.
They are
1.7
cm h and 2.5 cm w (3/4 by 1 inch).
These
enamel Art Deco earrings are in
first rate good condition.

Tricolour enamel earrings
These colourful earrings are enamelled on
gold coloured metal which traces the edges of the colours. They
are 3 cm h and 1.2 cm at widest point (1 1/4 by 1/2 in).
They are currently a screw on fitting, but
we will happily change them to a gold coloured pierced fitting,
at no extra charge. Just email us at at the time of
your order (see contact us for
address).
We believe these Art Deco earrings to be
genuinely vintage rather than a retro copy. They combine Art Deco
motifs - both the triangle and the mix of diamante and enamel. There are
two dark blue enamel panels and one ivory panel. The back is a smooth silver tone
metal.
They are 6 cm by 1.1 cm (2 3/8 by 1/2 inches).
These
glamorous Art Deco earrings are in
good vintage condition.
The bunch of grapes is a classic jewellery

impression - not for the faint hearted.

Art deco teardrop
earrings
This colour
has been described as art deco green. The walls of the art deco
interior of Eltham Palace in South East London are painted in a similar
colour. These graceful elongated teardrops are made completely of
plastic and have distinct ridges down the front, which gives a two tone
effect.
The
teardrop is 4.6
cm by 1.1 cm (1 3/4 by 1/2 inches).
These
vintage art deco earrings are in
good condition apart from a small white mark at the top of the reverse
side of one of the earrings, which would not show when worn.

Art Deco diamond shaped earrings
The diamond is
a representative art deco shape, and there are 3 diamond shape outlines
incorporated in this design. The individual shapes appear
to be moulded from a vintage plastic and then fused. They
are a medium reddish brown colour.
These pierced
earrings are 4.8 cm long and 2.7 cm wide (approx 2 by 1.25
inches). The outer frame depth is about 1 cm (.4 in) at
the bottom to 1.5 cm (.6 inch) at
the top, where the first diamond shape is attached. The wires and small round bead attachment
are in gold coloured metal.
These 1930's
style earrings are in

Art deco wooden
earrings
These triangular earrings have rounded edges
at the top. The central triangle is obviously wood. The
outer, more polished black pieces appear almost plastic, but on close
examination, have a fine grain. They may be influenced by the
interest in things African, another art deco motif.
They are 4.5
cm h and 2.4 cm w (1 3/4 by 1 inches).
