Bold Contrast. Architectural Linework. Signed Design.
These vintage Laurel Burch “NAITO” earrings are a study in graphic restraint — deep glossy black enamel framed in gold tone, accented with sharp angular gold geometric striping.
Minimal. Striking. Structured.
The asymmetrical placement of the gold linework gives them movement while keeping the silhouette clean and modern. They feel almost architectural — a perfect balance of bold and refined.
Signed on the reverse and marked “NAITO,” this pair carries both designer authenticity and production distinction.
