Mid Century Earrings

The post-war era between 1945 and 1970 is widely referred to as mid-century, and it’s a period that we’re still fascinated by. The mid-century modern movement was influenced by science, technology, the arts and design, and this influence is reflected in mid-century jewellery design also. Mid century jewellery makes excellent use of colour using pink, blue and orange precious stones, as well as pearls.
