ONE PAIR LEFT: 1960s Japanese porcelain flower hoop earrings - orange
Handmade in the Otways
Description
Materials: 1960s Japanese porcelain, sterling silver.
I think these may be the *most* 1960s looking pieces I've ever had. They have flowers, with golden tips and do show minor imperfections on the surface of the porcelain. I would never sell you a pair that I wouldn't wear myself, but need you to know they're not in pristine condition, they do show signs that they're definitely at least 50 years of age.
These handmade sterling silver hoops use quite a bit more metal than our regular signature wires. They can be made to order in 9ct gold, but I'll need to get a quote as they will be considerably more expensive than other gold pieces in our collection. 100% do-able, but only available to be made by quote, deposit and then order. Get in touch via the contact page if you'd like a quote for 9ct rose or yellow gold.
Size: approx 6.3cm tall
