Fashion History and Design

These striking button earrings are a classic example of the Memphis Design movement. They showcase the bold and graphic style defining the 1980s New Wave era. The Memphis Group rejected rigid minimalism in favor of playful postmodernism. They focused on geometric experimentation and saturated color palettes. Jewelry from this period embraced vibrant styling choices. Designers used techniques like cold enameling to achieve a liquid gloss finish. This unsigned deadstock pair captures that rebellious neo pop aesthetic. The design blends a sharp geometric silhouette with a rich Pinkish-Red that is like a ripe watermelon.
