A while ago, I was lucky enough to buy a group of early Jean Paul Gaultier jewelry. The US rep for Gaultier had it stashed away in a box and was happy to find someone who would appreciate it. These earrings were part of the group. They are 2 5/8" (7 cm) long. The top circle is 1" (2.9 cm) in diameter. The larger circle is a hair less than1 3/8" (3.9 cm) wide. These earrings are "dead stock" and have never been worn.

These earrings are wonderful madness! They are made of translucent molded resin with painted gold details and wired drop beads. The circular earring back, seen through to the front, acts as a design element. They have a wonderful handmade, Mad Max quality. Including the drops they are 2 3/4" (7.5cm) long by a hair more than 2 3/4" (7.5 cm) at the widest. From around 1990, they are in pristine condition.

This contemporary studio-produced ring is distinctive for its flattened form and flared corners. The applied decoration of beading interspersed with a wavy silver wire is enhanced with a highly oxidized background. The top protrudes 5/16 inch above the finger; the sides of the band are curved inward, making the ring quite comfortable to wear. The ring is a size 8. Weight: 5.3 grams
