I am a big fan of Carmen Beckmann’s Etruscan style jewelry - her domed Etruscan ring is a foundational piece in my collection and I enjoy it thoroughly. There is something about the way the wire-work and tiny florets with their bead centers oxidize with time that creates an air of warm, comfortable luxury around them that gets me every time. I could easily see the dangle earrings at hand worn by dignified Roman matrons leisurely enjoying their honeyed wine. Measuring 1 1/4” long by 1 1/8” wide they weigh 13.9 grams (for the set) and are marked with maker’s signature as shown as well as “STERLING MEXICO”. They date in the 1960s-70s and are in excellent vintage condition with deep, glowing patina, all the florets securely in place, with no damage and no repairs noted.
