A little spark of citrus for your ears. These vintage clip-on earrings feature a glossy, sculptural green centre with a bold gold-tone cross overlay that wraps the shape like a tiny piece of modernist architecture. The finish catches the light beautifully, so they read polished and intentional, even with a simple white tee or a black slip dress.
The clip-on backs are classic spring clips with a solid, structured feel, ideal if you do not have pierced ears or you just like the flexibility. Size wise, they sit around a New Zealand 50c coin scale, so they are statement-y without taking over your whole outfit.
Pair these with black, cream, chocolate, denim, or any green accent already in your wardrobe. They look especially sharp with clean collars, sleek hair, or a bold lip when you want a bit of that vintage energy for a simple outfit.
