Condition Notes: From the house of H. Stern, these rock crystal quartz, diamond, and 18k gold earrings exemplify contemporary elegance. Each earring begins with a sleek hollow-form hinged hoop and fitted with posts that lock securely to the backside of the hoop. The hoops can be worn alone or converted to drop earrings with a trio of interlinked gold loops suspended beneath, each adorned with full-cut diamonds. The design culminates in large, modified shield-shaped rock crystal quartz drops, rotated in opposite directions, and drilled to enhance their optical clarity and natural luster. Both upper and lower sections bear the maison's signature star mark for H. Stern. The earrings are preserved in excellent condition with faint evidence of previous handling.
H. Stern: The Brazilian jewelry company, H. Stern, was founded by a young German émigré named Hans Stern in 1945. He got his start buying and selling colored gemstones in Rio de Janeiro. His sharp eye for color was equaled by his interest in creative design. The company’s golden rule was that each piece had to be beautiful. Once small, H. Stern has grown to an international manufacturer and retailer with boutiques throughout the world. Under the leadership of Hans Stern’s son, Ronaldo, the company continues to design exquisite jewels always set with the finest quality of gemstones.
