A pair of Retro scroll clip earrings set with emerald-cut amethysts, accented with rubies. The bold scroll design, in warm rose gold, frames the richly coloured amethysts, while the ruby accents provide a vivid contrast.
Characteristic of the 1940s Retro period, the earrings display strong lines, generous gold work, and a confident use of colour. The combination of rose gold with vibrant gemstones was especially favoured during this era, reflecting both technical innovation in goldsmithing and a shift toward more dramatic, statement jewellery. The emerald-cut amethysts lend architectural structure to the otherwise fluid scroll motif, creating a balance between geometry and movement.
Mounted in 14ct rose gold.
American, circa 1940.
