Earrings crafted in 9Kt (375‰) yellow gold, of Italian origin, dating from the early years of the 20th century. The navicella-style craftsmanship is adorned with long pendants. The hollow interior of the body gives the earrings a lightweight feel, ensuring they do not weigh down the earlobe. The design of these earrings evokes the shape of a padlock and key. This type of earring is well illustrated in the book L’ornamento prezioso, 1989 edition.
