Fashion jewelry has roots in the 18th century, when glass stones and inexpensive materials were used to imitate fine gems for the emerging middle class. By the early 20th century, designers like Coco Chanel popularized costume jewelry as high fashion, blending glass crystals with base metals to create bold, elegant pieces. Bohemian glass from Czechoslovakia, prized for its brilliance, became widely used in the 1920s - 1930s, cementing glass-stone jewelry as both accessible and artistically significant. These pristine oversized glass jeweled earrings are from the 1940s to 1950s.

Dimensions: diameter 1 7/8 inches
