Vintage Coral “Sputnik” Earrings

$4,800.00

In 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, and the entire Western world went wild.  Within months, that spiky little satellite had colonized furniture, architecture, lighting — and of course, jewelry!  These earrings are a direct artifact of that cultural moment, pure Space Age. A gold starburst armature radiates in every direction, each arm capped with a smooth coral cabochon. The effect is equal parts atomic model, Christmas ornament, and deep-sea organism.  Beyond chic and sexy, truly. 18kt Yellow Gold Measures: 1.12″ L x 1″ W 15.6 Grams Please see qualitative report for more information.
