Modern Chanel 18KY gold amethyst, peridot, and blue topaz omega backs cuff earrings

Description : Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel was born in 1883. She worked as a seamstress, and also was a performer in the town of Vichy in 1906. In 1918 she purchased the building at 31 Rue Cambon in the most fashionable district of Paris, where she created clothing, hats and accessories and later expanded to jewelry and perfumes. One of the marks of a great designer is their longevity in the market. To think that this woman's design aesthetic has lived that long and is still going strong is unmistakable success. One of her mottos was, “Proportion is the key to great design”. These solid, luxurious earrings are flush set with cushion shaped, amethysts, peridot and blue topaz. The scale and weight suggests the finest craftsmanship with the most delicate of design. Color is also a strong detail in her jewelry, and these bold, classic earrings are a perfect example of her life's work. Stunning, signed, and masterful work, these are a statement to the brilliance of one of the first women designers that was a pioneer, and an unrepentant feminist.
