Fabulous Vintage 18ct Gold 'Door Knocker' Hoop Earrings
Knock knock.
Who’s there?
Oh just the most fabulous hoops I have ever bought!!!!
These are so super cool, I can’t really handle it. Vintage, but PROPER vintage (look, you young things, don’t go telling me the early 2000s is vintage) these are from the late 70s/early 80s and can you just imagine what they have seen?! Whoever owned these had the most chic sense of fashion, and did not shy away from the bold and beautiful side of things. Think Mob Wife (or Pat Butcher in her dreams, IYKYK).
Classic door-knockers, but in super rich 18ct yellow gold. What?! I die. I’ve always loved this design, a generous hoop but it can swing, thanks to the hinged tops. Just so good. I want to put these on, wear a lot of make up and leopard print. I have never seen a pair like this, especially in 18ct.
They are a very respectable weight, but are comfortable to wear and won’t pull on your lobes. They were very cool then, they are very cool now, and they will remain that way forever.
