Vintage Christian Lacroix Blue Glass Drop Earrings 1990s
Dangle drop earrings by Christian Lacroix featuring dimpled deep blue glass pendants. The glass centres are set in textured gold-plated metal that is decorated with scrolls. As is typical for Christian Lacroix pieces, the metal is covered in a brownish wash that adds depth to the indentations of the metal.
The earrings fasten with clip fittings which are snug and secure. These earrings were made in the 1990s during the short time that Christian Lacroix produced his very collectible jewellery.
Signed on each earring with the usual oval plaque 'Christian Lacroix CL Made in France'.
They are in excellent condition, measuring 5.5cm in length and 2.5cm in width.
Christian Lacroix
The French fashion house of Christian Lacroix was founded in the late 80s. The house is well known for their bold, often oversized costume jewellery with gold being the favoured finish. Their limited edition Christmas pins are especially collectible.
How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
