Viennese Ribbonwork Earrings | Platinum & Rose Gold | c.1915

A beautifully made pair of early 20th-century earrings, most likely Viennese, crafted in platinum and rose gold around 1915.

Each earring forms a delicate orb, made in the round with fine openwork filigree in platinum, wrapped with soft bands of rose gold.

The rose gold ribbons wind their way around the platinum, adding warmth and softness to the structure of the earrings.

They’re light on the ear but full of presence, quietly striking, with a sculptural quality that’s both subtle and distinctive.

The design reflects the refined craftsmanship of the time, with hints of both late Secessionist style and the early stirrings of Art Deco.

Effortless to wear, they add quiet glamour to day or evening looks:  elegant, unusual, and beautifully made.
