Bold sculptural clip earrings by American maker MAZ, dating to circa 1970. Crafted in 14K yellow gold, each earring features a dramatic natural conch shell form centered by a luminous mabe pearl and accented with bezel-set ruby, peridot, and citrine.
Decorative gold beads and floral wirework enhance the hand-assembled design, reflecting the organic modern aesthetic of mid-century American studio jewelry. Substantial in scale yet well balanced on the ear, the earrings are finished with secure hinged clip backs.
