These beautiful vintage earrings from the Yves Saint Laurent Collection are an iconic example of the luxurious, expressive style with which the fashion house set the tone in the 1980s and early 1990s. Designed at a time when Yves Saint Laurent regarded jewellery as an extension of his couture, these earrings perfectly bring his vision of powerful femininity and elegant abundance to life.

The design is inspired by a four-petalled flower, with glossy gilt petals and a sparkling heart of pavé-set crystals. The combination of organic shapes, soft curves and a dazzling centrepiece gives these earrings a playful yet chic appearance – characteristic of Saint Laurent's work in this period.

A timeless statement piece that embodies the spirit of vintage YSL glamour.

Yves Saint Laurent was one of the most influential fashion designers of the 20th century. In the 1970s he also began designing costume jewellery, which soon became a regular part of his fashion shows and collections.

Saint Laurent was known for his bold and glamorous style. His jewellery was large, pronounced and often richly coloured – true statement pieces that gave his designs extra power.

To this day his jewellery is beloved by collectors and fashion lovers. By combining art, fashion and culture, he created a timeless and iconic style that still inspires.
