Vintage Matisse Clip On Earrings

These Matisse earrings from the 1950s-1960s are an exquisite example of mid-century modern jewelry design. Crafted from solid copper and featuring vibrant enamel overlays, they embody the rich history and innovative spirit of their creator, Jerry Fels. Matisse, alongside its sister line Renoir, was known for its geometric forms and organic motifs, inspired by the Arts and Crafts Movement and modern art. These earrings are a testament to the brand's dedication to craftsmanship, making them a true piece of American jewelry history. This pair is possibly the “Lily” style and is marked Matisse on the back. Earrings measure 1 1/4th of an inch tall by 3/4th of an inch wide. Condition of this set is excellent.
