It is not uncommon for connoisseurs and lovers of beautiful things to have existing pieces of jewelry rebuilt or redesigned according to their own taste. This sometimes results in unique pieces that only exist once. This seems to be the case with these earrings. The upper part of the earrings is in the form of small gold shamrocks. Each of the three leaves is set with a pearl. Attached to them and swinging from a small eyelet are two small sails made of white gold and yellow gold, which are pierced with stylized leaf motifs and reposition themselves with every movement. The small shamrocks reflect the taste of the turn of the century around 1900, but even if the details of their design show that they were created later, probably in the 1980s, based on an old model, they still exude the romantic charm of a bygone era. The pendulums, on the other hand, are decidedly modern, angular and clear. Both elements correspond to two major fashion trends of the 1980s, the romantic look back and the modern look forward. Rarely, however, are both combined in one piece of jewelry! This unconventional pair of earrings was probably made to order. We discovered the pair in Werder an der Havel.
