MID CENTURY EARRINGS QUESTIONS - DESIGNER'S NAME? TYPES OF STONES?

The Stephen Dweck stones might best be described as 'art glass'.

The KJL earrings are not made with real turquoise. The large 'turquoise' stones are likely plastic, the smaller 'turquoise' stone might be glass (they are called 'turquoise matrix).

I get sometimes requests to show a picture with a ring on a real hand and earrings on a real head. When listing rings I usually include a picture of the ring on my hand, but I use a small picture that doesn't show any detail and is just useful for showing size and how it looks on the hand.

 

I don’t mind seeing a ring displayed on a finger as long as it compliments the ring. Photos of earrings in ears however make me scroll past very quickly

 

This is an old-ish thread. I wonder whether @journeymagazine ever got the earring display stand?

 

Good ID -- I think you may have been the only one to mention it?

I have a pair of somewhat similar earrings that my mother owned since the early 1950s. So these newer ones are definitely mid-century in style.

 

I still have these shown - and 4 or 5 bags & boxes more! - under my bed. When I think about selling them I put it off because they were my mom's and also because there's so much & I don't know much about them

 

Good idea, imo.
