In Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Spain and Portugal, 19th century jewelry forms and processing techniques experienced a true renaissance during the post-war economic miracle years. The ear clips presented here are also deliberately designed in the style of the Belle Époque, the "beautiful era" before the outbreak of the two great wars. The clip earrings set a total of 26 sapphires in silver showpieces. Twelve smaller sapphires are arranged like petals around a larger sapphire in the center. The stone in the middle is set in yellow gold and is mysteriously dark. In transmitted light, its color appears greenish. The smaller stones are lighter, shining in a dark blue. The backs of the ear clips are made of high-carat gold.

The ear clips are impressive and brighten up everyday life with Italian joie de vivre. The couple came to us here in Berlin.
