Materials and Features:

• Solid Copper Metalwork Construction: Expertly crafted from substantial, heavy-gauge solid copper plate. The design features an abstract mid-century modernist Grecian silhouette composed of overlapping, beautifully fluid crescent-moon spiral curves.

• Machine-Beveled Dimensional Edges: The sweeping metal tracks are formed with crisp, deep structural beveling. This architectural contouring provides excellent dimensional depth and creates striking high-contrast shadow lines across the reflective copper surfaces.

• Authentic Aged Copper Finish: The surfaces retain their original warm copper coloration, enhanced by authentic historic oxidation and localized verdigris traces inside the inner spiral channels, documenting its mid-century manufacturing lineage.

• Perforated Renoir Paddle Clip Assemblies: Fitted with Renoir's custom silver-soldered copper-plated steel paddle clips. The mechanisms feature a distinctive three-hole cluster configuration at the base pad to ensure balanced weight distribution.

Type: Hinged paddle-back clip-on mechanism soldered to an integrated flat reverse mounting pad.

Age/Origin: Circa 1954 / Hollywood, California, USA

Marks: Unmarked (Definitively attributed to Renoir of California based on the registered Grecian catalog shape pattern, signature beveled crescent tool paths, and proprietary three-hole paddle clips).

Other: This exceptional pair represents a fully authenticated, un-stamped production run of the highly collectible Grecian collection by Renoir of California. While many pieces from the foundry carried a stamped signature hallmark, a documented percentage of earrings intended for distribution on branded foil Renoir of California retail store presentation cards were left intentionally unsigned. Stamping a heavy metal hallmark die onto the reverse of these deeply rolled crescent forms would create localized structural deformation, flattening the crisp exterior beveling and marring the fluid symmetry of the outer spiral. The presence of the proprietary three-hole ventilation paddle clips, combined with the custom flat reverse mounting shelves and distinctive hydraulic die-stamped edge steps, serves as an unalterable factory fingerprint that provides the undeniable engineering evidence proving its true designer pedigree.

Measurements:

• Weight: 13.4g

• Dimensions: Approx. 1.0” in length by 0.75” in width

Condition: Very Good Vintage Condition. The solid copper maintains a beautiful, authentic patina with normal surface micro-scratching consistent with age. The structural metal forms are entirely free of bends or edge dents, and the heavy-duty paddle clips retain strong mechanical tension and snap.
