Art deco inspired fan earrings


I've been on the hunt for fan-shaped golden earrings for a long time. I found a pair last week. And now the hunt is over...not. I want more of them - in different colours and materials. Someone has given the pair I found much love and they've been worn a lot. But you can still see the beautiful pattern showing a japanese dragon and a bonsai tree.

I remember that my mum used to have earrings like these in the 80's. I always played with them, pretending that they were folding fans for my Barbie dolls. I must admit that I still can't leave them alone. I find myself folding them back and forth all the time.

  2. I used to have a little fan charm for a necklace and did the same thing. Fun earrings!

  3. Fantastic earrings; your universe is so fascinating! (And I can imagine those fans would be great for a child playing with Barbie dolls.) Have a great weekend! x

    Klänningen är faktiskt från H&M, så inte vintage

    Riktigt fina örhängen, hade velat ha lite mer vintage smycken jag, synd att man inte var rik! ;)
