A rare find for the discerning collector: Charel 1950s clip-on earrings, a signature piece from this coveted mid-century designer. Charel's limited production and marked examples command serious collector attention, these are increasingly difficult to source. The design exemplifies 1950s floral sophistication: delicate rhodium-plated silver-tone settings showcase pristine clear rhinestones in a distinctive botanical composition. Every stone is flawless and brilliantly faceted, with absolutely no wear to the settings—a testament to either careful original ownership or remarkable preservation over seven decades. Measuring ¾-inch by ¾-inch, these earrings balance presence with refinement. The clip-on mechanism, characteristic of the era, offers secure hold and adjustability for varied ear types, a practical advantage over pierced alternatives. Condition is museum-quality: no chipped, clouded, or missing stones; no metal fatigue or discoloration. The rhodium plating maintains its silvery luster throughout. For the vintage jewelry connoisseur, Charel pieces represent a specific moment in American costume jewelry history—when design innovation and manufacturing precision converged. These earrings transcend occasion wear; they're investment-grade collectibles which appreciate in desirability as authenticated examples become scarcer. Equally at home in a curated collection or worn as a statement of refined taste, they embody timeless elegance with documented provenance.

Absolutely incredible jacket. Wore it hiking in Norway — wind, rain, snow — and stayed completely dry and warm. The fit is perfect and the quality is premium.

Great jacket overall. Sizing runs slightly large — the quality is fantastic. The colour is even more beautiful in person.
