These spectacular earrings are an early example of the work of Maison Gripoix for Chanel. Each clip earring is 3 3/4" long x 1 1/4" wide, and both are made from brass with pate de verre glass details. There is a tiny amount of darkening to the brass, but there is no damage to the glass. They are partially hallmarked "France" on the reverse of each earring. Pieces from Chanel's early period of design are extremely hard to find.
