Gorgeous pair of vintage, signed Gerard Yosca* gold tone clip-on earrings, 1 3/8" diameter disks with vibrant green enamel, edged with braids of gold tone metal, faux pearl cabochon, and rhinestone accents. In excellent pre-owned, vintage (1980's) condition, both esthetically and functionally.
*About Gerard Yosca, from his Facebook listing: "Always on a constant quest to discover, create and design, Gerard is
entirely self-taught. Making arts and crafts eventually led him to
Parsons School of Design. However, it was not until after graduation that he found his voice in jewelry.
For over 30 years, all pieces are designed and made by hand in NYC’s
Garment District. Models are created from scratch, carved from wax or
produced directly from metal. Stones are handmade to our specifications
to produce colors and shapes specifically “Yosca”.
Soon after
its institution, the company reintroduced vibrantly colored enamel into
costume jewelry and was later responsible for creating the first
butterfly hair clip."
