A matched set in deep oxidized silver tone, each piece centered on a round green moonglow cabochon — that particular mid-century lucite with its milky, light-catching interior that shifts between jade and emerald depending on the angle. The pendant hangs from an open scrollwork frame and rides a fine chain; the earrings repeat the same scrollwork in miniature with screw backs. Moonglow cabochons were widely used in American costume jewelry throughout the 1950s and remain one of the most collected materials from the era — the color in this set is especially vivid and intact. A complete, unworn-looking parure from a decade that dressed with intention.
