About the Item
These vintage Italian earrings exemplify the refined craftsmanship of late 20th-century studio gold jewelry. Crafted in solid 18 karat gold, the design features layered rope-work elements arranged in a dimensional, flowing composition that wraps elegantly along the ear.
Set throughout the gold are 16 round diamonds totaling approximately 1.60 carats, providing brightness and contrast, along with 14 rubies totaling approximately 0.70 carats, whose rich red tone adds warmth and depth to the design. The gemstones are integrated directly into the structure rather than applied as surface decoration, resulting in a cohesive and well-balanced presentation.
The earrings measure approximately 1.25 inches by 0.5 inches and have a substantial yet wearable feel, with a total weight of 15.34 grams. Finished with secure clip-back fittings, they are comfortable to wear and consistent with high-quality Italian construction of the period.
Signed CHERNY, the mark denotes an artisan workshop rather than a commercial house, a common practice among Italian goldsmiths of the 1960s–1970s who prioritized craftsmanship, material quality, and individuality over branding.
A confident and collectible pair of Italian Modernist earrings, valued for their workmanship, materials, and timeless design.
