The centerpiece is a large oval cabochon in Italian matrix marble, that particular swirling pink stone that collectors sometimes call "landscape" marble for the way it seems to hold depth and movement.

Around the centerpiece: white molded textured stones, amber rhinestones, tiny white enamel flowers with aqua blue enamel leaves, all held in place by gold-tone prongs that are as much decoration as structure. The earrings carry the same vocabulary in a smaller format, pink marble, navette-cut white stones, enamel flowers, amber rhinestones.

Chunky, intricate, and completely unlike anything being made today. An outstanding gift for a serious vintage jewelry collector, a lover of sculptural jewelry, or anyone who appreciates objects made with genuine imagination.

Unmarked, but the quality and construction read like the best mid-century unsigned work, in the style of DeLizza & Elster, Schreiner, Miriam Haskell, or Hobé. This is not a piece that announces its maker; it doesn't need to. The stones and the setting speak clearly enough.
