Textured Gold and Turquoise Glass Rhinestone Drop Hoop Earrings

Costume jewelry has a rich history, originating in the 18th century as an affordable alternative to fine jewelry. It gained prominence in the 20th century, notably through fashion icons like Coco Chanel, who popularized mixing high and low fashion. The 1970s and 1980s were especially influential, with bold, vibrant designs reflecting the era’s eclectic style and pop culture, disco, and power dressing trends. These gold and turquoise glass rhinestone drop earrings dates back to the 1980s or 1990s, embodying the expressive spirit of the time.
