This curated selection of vintage earrings is perfect for any of our Painted Birds. Each piece has the unique ability to compliment both the wearer and brings panache, style and a little edginess to whatever you are wearing.
Simply inspired.
These joyful 1980s maximalist clip ons are a celebration of colour. Layers of glossy faux glass bobbles in red, cobalt, emerald, violet and sapphire sit alongside polished gold tone spheres, creating a vibrant cluster that feels sculptural and expressive. They frame the face beautifully and draw the eye upward, adding depth and dimension without overwhelming your features.
Pair them with a deep teal silk blouse, a mustard knit, electric blue tailoring or a rich berry dress. They thrive with colour and reward bold styling. For evenings, try them against satin in jewel tones. For daytime, let them elevate denim and a crisp chartreuse shirt.
There is of course only one of each of these delicate pieces for our store so each bird remains unique. Light catching and full of personality, each one is a treat for your ears.
