Green Opaque Lucite Oval Rhinestone Earrings

Costume jewelry first emerged in the 18th century, when artisans used glass and gilt metals to create fashionable designs. Its influence grew in the 20th century as icons like Coco Chanel paired statement pieces with couture, while Hollywood stars in the 1930s and 1940s made it glamorous. By the mid-20th century, innovations like Lucite allowed designers to experiment with lightweight, sculptural forms in vibrant colors, showcasing craftsmanship in new and playful ways. These rhinestone opaque Lucite earrings are from the 1960s to 1970s.
