Vintage Wing-Shaped Diamond Earclips from the 1950s

Evoking the elegance of the 1950s, these wing-shaped platinum earclips capture the essence of vintage glamour. Set with 40 brilliant-cut diamonds totalling approximately 1.74 carats, they reflect the era’s fascination with natural motifs and refined sparkle. Inspired by the graceful form of bird wings, each clip embraces the Art Deco influence still present in mid-century designs, blending it with the distinct aesthetic of the Fifties. Crafted with impeccable precision, these earclips make a striking statement, beautifully bridging nature’s inspiration with the sophistication of fine jewellery.
