1940s Deco Style Cuff and Earring Set

 

 

 

 

This deco-style hinged cuff bracelet in a chrome-toned metal, has a metal mesh overlay adorned with what we like to think of as two opposing emerald cut rhinestone 'comets' with rhinestone studded 'tails'. The matching clip earrings echo the 'tail' design of the cuff.  Absolutely stunning against a black ensemble or worn over long black gloves with a cocktail dress. Cuff measures 2.5" wide in front, 1" at the back. Earrings are 1.125" long by .75" wide. The set is unmarked, though it looks exactly like a Vargas cuff we have seen. The tension on the clip of one earring seems a little slack, otherwise, both pieces are in excellent condition.  $275
