The Nina Ricci Pendentif Goutte Noire et Pompon d'Or Earrings

Archive Collection

A dramatic, high-glamour masterpiece of mid-1980s French evening luxury, The Nina Ricci Pendentif Goutte Noire et Pompon d'Or Earrings arrive perfectly preserved in immaculate deadstock condition. Presented beautifully on their original cream velvet display card carrying the iconic House logo, this rare statement set celebrates movement, striking contrast, and classic Parisian baroque refinement.

Each earring is engineered as a spectacular, multi-tiered long drop featuring exceptional artisanal assembly. The top section features a substantial, stylized teardrop cluster centered by a large, high-domed cabochon in jet-black glass or onyx enamel. This glossy, dark centerpiece is framed by an ornate starburst halo of clear Swarovski crystal accents, individually nested inside textured gold-tone prongs that radiate outward. Anchored to the bottom of this jeweled shield is a beautifully articulated, heavy golden mesh tassel (pompon). Gathered at the top by a fluted metal cap, dozens of fine, high-polished box or link chains swing with fluid, liquid-like grace, catching the light dynamically with every movement of the head.

As an authentic deadstock archival find from the premier Nina Ricci and D’Orlan manufacturing era, this pair showcases the immaculate stone-setting precision, robust casting weight, and signature premium triple-layered 22kt gold-plating depth that define the brand's haute couture history.
