The eighties were all about GILT, GOLD and GLISTENING jewels and we didn't see much in the realm of silver tones. These dramatic platinum antique-finished earrings are a rare and surprising find. Complete with the époque's stand-out style, the icy sterling hued finish on this earring works so well with today's fashions. Iridescent crystals accentuate the silvery palette. Intricate floral repoussé work gives this magnificent earring its three-dimensional allure.
Kalinger was THE costume jewelry house during the 1980s in Paris. Catherine and Laurent Martinez, the designers and founders were known for their hand-crafted haute couture designs of striking beauty and innovative materials. For just over 10 years (1986-1997) their high quality jewelry became the coveted items of the elite fashionable Parisians. So exclusive and hard to find, Kalinger jewels are now highly collectable. Their boutique on the Faubourg St Honoré was a jewel box of creativity and colour.
