These earrings depict a stylized spiral shell or ammonite fossil, decorated with black and white enamel and gold-colored inserts.The design is reminiscent of the 1980s-1990s fashion trend of large, sculptural earrings with enamel. The shape (spiral with segments) is reminiscent of natural motifs typical of some short-lived designer brands inspired by Art Deco or nautical forms. The metal appears to be cast, with some roughness on the inside, and no markings – which may indicate handmade or small-run production.
