This pair of Art Deco earrings dates from 1930 and comprises silver, marcasite, and faceted blue hardstone drops. The design features linear marcasite-set bars holding faceted blue teardrop stones with screwback fittings suitable for non-pierced or pierced ears. The metals display a bright silver finish alongside textured marcasite settings, while the stones show mottled shades of deep blue, teal, and slate grey. Visible details include threaded screws with ridged circular turn-keys at the top, articulated leaf motifs above each pendant, and numerical silver fineness stamps reading 935. The earrings measure 4.4 cm high and 1.2 cm wide. They suit personal wear for formal evening attire or vintage-inspired outfits in a modern wardrobe.

FAQs

Art Deco jewellery, popular during the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by geometric shapes, linear drop silhouettes, and bold contrast through gemstone combinations.

Pieces from this era frequently featured sterling silver, marcasite accents, faceted coloured stones or glass, and adjustable screwback mechanisms designed for non-pierced ears.

Authentic examples often display silver hallmarks, hand-set marcasite detail, threaded screw fittings, and characteristic geometric or transitional filigree work.

Statement drop earrings pair effortlessly with modern evening wear or tailored blazers to add historical elegance and a subtle pop of deep colour.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or liquid submersion that could loosen set marcasite stones and degrade oxidised silver finishes.
