Named for French ballet dancer Zizi Jeanmaire, these stylish Art Deco drop earrings celebrate the work of Romain de Tirtoff (French, born Russia, 1892–1990), better known as Erté. The two-tone openwork fan design features satin-finish 18K gold plate and rhodium plate with Swarovski® crystals.
The artist enjoyed a multifaceted career as a costume and set designer; he is especially renowned for the fabulous covers he created for
Harper’s Bazaar
magazine from 1915–1936. The Met houses an important collection of Erté’s original gouaches.
