The D’Orlan Cascading Calligraphie Arabe Pendant Earrings
Archive Collection
A breathtaking masterpiece of cultural fusion and high-fashion runway scale, The D’Orlan Cascading Calligraphie Arabe Pendant Earrings arrive preserved in immaculate deadstock archival condition. Standing out as a deeply expressive and rare statement piece, this design beautifully blends the house's signature bold texturing with fluid oriental calligraphy.
Each earring is constructed as a dramatic, three-tiered shoulder-grazing drop composed of articulated oval medallions. The background of each station features a deeply hammered, porous, rock-textured gold-tone finish enclosed by a delicate rope-twist border that catches the light with a rich, antique-like depth. Layered smoothly on top of this brutalist texture is a high-polished, raised golden script forming stylized Arabic calligraphy ("ثقة" / "Thiqah", meaning trust/confidence). The polished, fluid lines of the script sit in stunning, dimensional contrast against the textured medallions beneath them. Thanks to fine chain link connections between each tier, the heavy golden plates move with incredible fluidity, catching the light dynamically with every turn of the head.
As an authentic archival find from the Nina Ricci and D’Orlan era, this rare pair showcases the pristine mold definition, exceptional structural casting weight, and premium triple-layered gold-plating depth defining the brand's haute couture legacy.
