Retro Clip Earrings with Amethysts and Natural Turquoise – 18K Yellow Gold, Mid-20th Century

These elegant Retro clip earrings, crafted in 18-karat yellow gold (750), feature two natural oval-cut amethysts surrounded by natural turquoise accents. The deep violet of the central gemstones creates a distinctive contrast with the vivid blue of the turquoise, highlighting the bold color combinations characteristic of mid-century Retro jewelry.

Dating from the mid-20th century, the pair reflects the period’s preference for expressive geometric forms, saturated gemstone colors and substantial gold construction. With a total weight of 21.21 g, these clips offer both a strong decorative presence and versatile styling.

The current clip construction also allows for professional conversion into pierced earrings, while preserving the original character of the design.
