Luminous light blue mabé pearls distinguish these vintage Great Falls Metal Works clip earrings. The elongated ovals show silvery blue color with soft greenish reflections, framed by narrow sterling silver bezels that let their beautiful surfaces take center stage.
Great Falls Metal Works began in 1968, founded by an artist and her machinist husband. The studio became known for jewelry highlighting unusual stones and natural materials. This pair dates to approximately the 1980s–1990s and is signed GFMW and stamped Sterling.
