About the Item

Striking 1960s Antonio Pineda modernist earrings crafted in 970 silver with elongated amethyst cabochons. A collectible, sculptural pair from the master of Taxco. These statement earrings are a standout example of Antonio Pineda’s refined modernist design language. Crafted in high-purity 970 silver, the pair features a sculptural fleur-de-lis ribbon surmount that leads the eye down to long, elegant teardrop amethyst cabochons. The stones swing freely, adding movement and dimension when worn. Each earring bears the Pineda crown hallmark along with Eagle 17 assay marks, confirming mid-century Taxco origin. The amethysts are classic Pineda material, showing natural inclusions and surface-reaching fractures that are typical for his work and part of the authenticity collectors expect. Measurements are approximately 2 inches long by 1 inch wide. Combined weight is 14 grams. Amethyst drops measure about 16.2 mm in length. Condition is excellent vintage with only light surface wear consistent with age and use.

William Spratling Sterling Amethyst Shell Earrings, 1950s, Ex-Goddard Estate
By William Spratling
Located in North Attleboro, MA
A rare and sculptural pair of sterling silver and amethyst earrings by William Spratling, Taxco, Mexico, circa the 1950s. Each earring is formed as a stylized spiral conch shell accented with rich amethyst cabochons, a motif that showcases Spratling’s ability to merge organic inspiration with modernist design. These earrings come directly from the estate of Phyllis M. Goddard, the noted Spratling scholar. This exact pair is illustrated in her reference Spratling Silver: A Field Guide (see p. 96, fig. 2-301), giving them exceptional provenance and historical importance within Spratling’s body of work. Stamped with the appropriate maker’s marks. Excellent vintage condition with natural patina and original screw-back fittings. A museum-worthy example for collectors of mid-century Mexican silver, documented studio jewelry, or Spratling’s finest work. These are truly beautiful. Each earring is a whimsical spiraled sea...

A wearable piece of art from one of today’s most collectible jewelers. Packaged for gifting. ⸻ Celebrate the visual poetry of Silvia Furmanovich’s award-winning marquetry work with these exceptional drop earrings from the Egypt Collection. Handcrafted in 18K yellow gold, each earring features a fan-shaped panel of fine wood inlay, rendered in deep lapis tones with repeat Egyptian-inspired motifs. The marquetry is framed with a line of light brown diamonds at the curve, adding a subtle shimmer without competing with the pattern. Above each panel, a pear-shaped blue topaz (5.98 total carats) sits in a refined prong setting, its clarity and color offering a clean, modern contrast to the intricate inlay work.

This pair has been handled only for photos and has never been worn. A standout addition for collectors of contemporary art jewelry, Furmanovich enthusiasts, or anyone drawn to the fusion of ancient motifs and modern craftsmanship. ⸻ CONDITION NOTES • New and unworn • No wear, no scratches, no discoloration to metal or marquetry • Original earring backs and findings intact and pristine ⸻ SPECIFICATIONS • Designer: Silvia Furmanovich • Collection: Egypt • Materials: 18K yellow gold, marquetry wood inlay...
