Vintage DEZ Black & Gold Sculptural Statement Earrings | Italian Art Jewelry, c. 1980s–1990s
Striking vintage statement earrings by DEZ, showcasing bold sculptural design and rich ornamental detail. These earrings feature a dramatic multi-tier articulated construction with a black lacquered or resin base, accented by raised gold-tone filigree, beadwork, and domed black cabochons. The layered composition and riveted detailing give the pieces a strong architectural presence with clear art-jewelry influence.
