About the Item
Sculptural modernist clip earrings by the American maker MAZ, crafted in 14K yellow gold and designed with dramatic conch shell forms. Each earring is centered with a luminous mabe pearl, approximately 18 carats, and accented with bezel-set rubies, peridot, and citrine, offering rich color contrast against the natural shell.
Decorative gold bead and floral wire details highlight the hand-assembled construction and reflect the organic modern aesthetic of the 1960s–1970s. Substantial in both scale and weight, these earrings exemplify the bold design language of mid-century American studio jewelry. Finished with hinged clip backs, they offer strong visual presence while remaining well balanced on the ear.
