These Art Deco clip-on earrings date to circa 1930 and are formed from 18k white gold set with old-cut diamonds totalling 2.30 carats. Each piece displays a geometric fan and ribbon motif, featuring concentric tiers of pavé-set stones that contrast with polished white gold ribbon elements and a styled knot. The metallic body exhibits a bright silver colour throughout the textured diamond fields and smooth sweeping sections. The earrings include original clip mechanisms on the reverse to secure them to the earlobe without pierced fastenings. The pairing works effectively for both daytime and evening occasions when styled alongside other metallic accessories. The design language combines bold sculptural lines with traditional antique craftsmanship from the early twentieth century.

FAQs

Art Deco jewellery, prominent from the 1920s through the 1930s, is characterised by geometric patterns, clean linear forms, and stylized architectural motifs. Platinum and white gold were favoured precious metals, frequently set with pave diamonds and graphic motifs.

Craftsmen typically utilised 18k white gold or platinum for the settings, paired with old cut diamonds. Techniques such as pave setting, grain setting, and millegrain detailing were standard, alongside clip-on or mechanical findings popularised in the early 20th century.

Authentic pieces generally display hallmarking consistent with the era, hand-cut diamonds such as old European cuts, and period-appropriate mounting techniques. Additionally, vintage clip mechanisms often feature specific tension springs or maker marks distinctive to early 20th-century manufacturing.

Art Deco ear clips can be worn as statement pieces with formal evening attire or paired with minimalist contemporary tailoring to highlight the geometric metalwork. They can also be clipped onto suit lapels, collars, or knitwear as decorative accents.

Clean the earrings using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush to remove debris from behind the stone settings. Store them separately in a fabric-lined box to prevent the metals and diamonds from scratching other items.
