David Webb Gold Triple Curb Link Earrings
$12,500
These chunky David Webb polished gold earrings, with their graduating curb links, are an intriguing design that references the biomorphic forms of American 1960s and 70s art and architecture. Each of the three volumized hoops is differently-oriented and pleasingly asymmetrical, but together they form a strong and elegant balanced sculptural design of luminous gold to light up the face.

David Webb often ducked out of his boutique to sketch jewelry at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and may well have been inspired by hoop earrings and images of bejeweled figures he saw in the galleries dedicated to the ancient art of Ur and of Nubia.
