Vintage Kenneth Jay Lane Earrings 1960s
Kenneth Jay Lane Vintage 1960s Earrings
Beautiful early vintage earrings from one of the world's most famous and long standing costume jewellers, Kenneth Jay Lane. Made in the US in the 1960s from gold plated metal, inlaid with a rich butterscotch enamel.
Established in 1963, Kenneth Jay Lane made it chic to wear costume jewellery. He was noted for his imaginative use of colour — amethyst and coral, amber and turquoise, sapphire and topaz. He called his designs 'faux masterpieces' - taking inspiration from the natural world, using embroidery, peacock feathers and iridescent beetle bodies to name but a few.

Condition is everything
We never sell anything we would not be proud to wear ourselves. Vintage pieces are special because they have a story to tell and that is sometimes reflected in its unique patina.Most vintage pieces have minor imperfections which we try our very best to describe and reflect honestly in our photography.
How we classify the condition of our pieces
New - pieces that have never been worn and are in pristine condition.
Mint condition - pieces that in near perfect condition. They look as if they have never been worn or have been looked after exceptionally well.
Excellent condition - pieces that look hardly used, there may be a few tiny little scratches or marks that can only be seen if you look closely and unnoticeable when worn.
Very good condition - pieces that look a little used, minor scratches, chips or marks from years of wear or storage but consistent with age and adds to vintage patina and charm. There will not be any structural or functional problems.
Taking care of your jewellery
Signs of age add to the unique appeal and story of your precious pieces, but to minimise unwanted damage try to avoid liquids, make up and hair products and where possible try to store flat in packaging to avoid storage wear and tear.
We are always happy to make any repairs whether you have purchased through our store or not.
