ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

Long and lissome original Art Deco drops in glorious black & white. These sleek and slender beauties measure 2 inches long and swing and sway with an elongated natural black (with a smidgen of root beer) onyx pendants capped in platinum with tiny single-cut diamonds glittering all around. The drops are surmounted by a narrow row of rose-cut diamonds and a single bezel-set old mine-cut diamond. These dark and dramatic dangles date back to the early 1920s. Any black in your wardrobe?

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
