The talented artist, Judith Hendler, began her jewelry career in the early 1980’s. Experimenting with lucite scraps from her husband’s furniture design studio, she created one of a kind bold gems. On a fortuitous day, designer Nolan Miller spotted Judith wearing one of her pieces, and selected 2 necklaces for Joan Collins to wear on the hit TV series, Dynasty. Soon after, fashion designer, Alfred Fiandaca, ordered several pieces for one of his runway collections which soon put her at the attention of fashion industry. In a short few months, she was selling at Bonwitt Teller, and Saks Fifth Avenue. Her pieces were used in many television series including Dynasty, Knot’s Landing, Hotel, and Days of Our Lives. Her "champagne" twist bracelet was used in a major ad campaign for Elizabeth Arden, and examples of her works were published in many international fashion magazines including Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. I am very pleased to offer these great earrings from Judith Hendler’s personal collection. Her Acri-Gems jewelry collection is made from Acrivue which is a plastic originally intended for aircraft windows. It has a translucency of Bacarrat crystal, and Judith says jewelry made from it "…is like wearing an illusion." She views her work as "wearable sculpture", and each piece is hand cut and polished (not molded like most acrylic jewelry). These classic black lucite earrings measure 2 1/2" long x 1" wide, and have stainless steel clip back mechanisms. Black tubular lucite was cut on a diagonal creating oval shapes which were then fused together to make this design. They are new old stock and has never been worn or previously sold. They are in excellent condition and have their original paper label. One earring has been hand signed by Judith Hendler. Ms. Hendler's personal pieces are available EXCLUSIVELY through Erik Yang at "The Lush Life Antiques." |
