A rare and exquisitely sculpted pair of vintage 14K gold heart earrings, preserved from Betty’s personal archive. These earrings carry that unmistakable late-80s to early-90s couture silhouette — smooth, bold, folded lines that drape across the heart like fluid gold. Their form is dimensional, elegant, and timeless, giving the look of high-fashion goldwork worn by icons of the era.
Hand-crafted in warm, rich solid 14 karat yellow gold, each heart features a sculpted, pleated design that catches the light beautifully. These earrings are refined enough for everyday elegance yet striking enough to elevate a full evening look.
Perfectly maintained with no dents, no creases, and a glossy, mirror-bright surface that showcases the quality of their craftsmanship. A rare offering — and a meaningful representation of the gold-forward design language that shaped vintage luxury jewelry.
