Vintage 14k Gold Filigree Teardrop Earrings with Akoya Pearls, 1980s
A pair of teardrop filigree earrings from the 1980s, worked in 14k yellow gold and centered with a single 4mm akoya pearl at the heart of each openwork drop. The filigree reads as a stylized peacock or feather motif, with scrolling wirework framing the pearl and a twisted rope border tracing the outer edge of each teardrop — a hallmark of the intricate cast-and-hand-finished filigree work popular through the mid-to-late twentieth century. The earrings hang from simple shepherd's hook findings, allowing the drops to move and catch light with wear.
The akoya pearls are cream-white with the soft, even luster characteristic of the type, and sit clean and secure within their settings. This is a wearable, everyday-to-evening piece — equally suited to layering into a stack of vintage gold jewelry or worn alone as a quiet, detailed statement.
