CHANEL Camellia Drop Earrings by Karl Lagerfeld

Vintage CHANEL Camellia Drop Earrings by Karl Lagerfeld – Gripoix-Style Glass – Gold Tone – 1990s

A spectacular pair of vintage CHANEL drop earrings designed by Karl Lagerfeld during the celebrated 1990s, embodying the house’s signature blend of timeless elegance and bold costume jewelry.

Expertly crafted in richly textured gold-tone metal, each earring is centered with an openwork camellia flower—the iconic emblem of the House of Chanel—adorned with the intertwined CC logo at its heart. Suspended from the camellia are three elegant pendants, each terminating in luminous Gripoix-style poured glass cabochons in vibrant ruby red and turquoise blue. Their vivid colors evoke Byzantine and Mediterranean influences, themes that Karl Lagerfeld frequently revisited throughout his jewelry collections.

The hammered finish of the gold-tone metal creates a beautiful contrast with the glossy glass drops, giving the earrings remarkable depth, movement, and light. Dramatic yet exceptionally wearable, they perfectly capture the exuberant glamour that defines Chanel jewelry from the Lagerfeld era.

An increasingly rare collector’s pair, these earrings are equally suited to daytime sophistication or evening elegance.
