Jewelry forms of the past revived several times during the graduated 20th century. Surprisingly, the Art Déco era already looked back to models from the supposedly good old days. And so it was only logical that Art Deco itself was revived in the 1980s. The glamorous design language fit well into the life-hungry decade with its lust for daring forms. Not only were old pieces of jewelry worn again, but new creations in the spirit of the Roaring Twenties were also created. The present pair of ear clips is a typical representative of this fashion. However, it is more of an inspiration than a slavish imitation that we can observe and so the clips do not hide their time of origin. Rather, it is a variation of historical models to which homage is paid here as a contemporary tribute. So-called "plaques" of contrasting onyx and glittering diamonds may have been the inspiration for the design. The arched fronts present a beautiful diamond in the center of a slab of deep black onyx, an idea we also find in many jewelry designs in the past. Entirely contemporary, however, are the smooth frames of high karat gold and more diamonds in open channel settings that finish off the design at the top and bottom. Excellently crafted and made of selectly luxurious materials, the pair is a stylish eye-catcher from the 80s with a nostalgic reminiscence of Art Deco.
