This is an absolutely stunning pair of vintage statement earrings featuring a texturised, hammered gold-tone medallion button, a rich translucent emerald-green glass cabochon center, and an attached smooth, teardrop shaped faux marble drop. The look is iconic high-end runway aesthetics popularised in the late 1980s and 1990s. The "Gripoix" Style: The poured or cabochon translucent glass center set against textured or "brutalist" hammered gold metal mimics the luxury jewellery construction seen from major vintage design houses like Chanel or Givenchy.
