Overview:
Finely detailed vintage Cartier bombe cocktail earrings (circa 1945) crafted in 14 karat yellow gold.
The stylish vintage earrings feature a fluted bombe design in a textured shell motif. The whimsical design of the earrings highlights the bold aesthetic of the retro period. The dome measures 23mm (0.90 inches) and sits comfortably on the earlobe with hinged clip-on backings. We were lucky to acquire the set of jewelry including the ring, brooch and earrings (each sold separately).
The earrings are accompanied by a letter of expertise from the International Antique Jewelers Association Expertise (IAJA Expertise) confirming the authenticity of the Cartier earrings.
The earrings are in good condition with a few indentations evident. We have not cleaned the earrings in order to preserve the patina and collector value.
