These earclips epitomize the Byzantine style so favored by Mademoiselle Chanel during her lifetime and are an early and important example of signed jewelry from this iconic French house.

In very good condition for age with slight scratching and marking to faux pearls throughout as to be expected with a piece of this age, very small area of peeling towards the bottom of one button pearl which is hard to notice when examined and not seen when worn.
