1970s Oscar Betz Multi-Stone Silver Chandelier Earrings
one of a kind
Why we love it: These are a stunning piece of vintage construction. Oscar Betz, an artist from Santa Fe, New Mexico, known for his unique, one-of-a-kind jewelry, gained prominence in the 1970s and 1980s for his "featherweight" Southwestern chandelier earrings, which, despite their large size, are designed to be lightweight and well-balanced. Sought after by collectors, these earrings feature beautiful lapis lazuli, spiny oyster, and bright turquoise. A truly one-of-a-kind piece.
