{"product_id":"1980s-mixed-metal-textured-necklace-earring-set","title":"1980s Mixed-Metal Textured Necklace \u0026 Earring Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eBold, sculptural, and quintessentially 1980s, this striking coordinated necklace and earring set showcases an artful combination of mixed-metal tones enhanced by richly textured surfaces. Contrasting metallic finishes create depth and dimension throughout the design, while the tactile metalwork catches the light from different angles, giving the suite a sophisticated architectural quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixed metals became an important element of jewelry design during the 1980s, when designers enthusiastically abandoned traditional rules about wearing gold and silver separately. Instead, contrasting metal tones were combined into a single composition, often accompanied by hammered, etched, ridged, or otherwise textured finishes. These techniques transformed the surface of the jewelry itself into the ornament, creating bold statement pieces without relying on gemstones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe matching earrings echo the necklace's distinctive metalwork, creating a beautifully cohesive ensemble that can be worn together for maximum impact or separately for a more understated look. The combination of substantial form and varied texture perfectly reflects the decade's fascination with wearable sculpture and dramatic accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSophisticated yet wonderfully versatile, this vintage mixed-metal suite is a timeless example of 1980s statement jewelry. Its dimensional textures and contrasting metallic tones give it an artistic, modernist character that remains remarkably contemporary today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrand\/Maker: Unknown\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEra: 1980s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStyle: Set\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial(s): Silver \u0026amp; Gold Tone Metal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMarkings\/Stamps: None\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClosure: Lobster Clasp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNecklace:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Length (end to end): 17.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Width (at widest part):\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Weight: 70g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEarrings: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Length: 2.25\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Width: 1\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Weight (each): 12.62g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCall Outs: None\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSku: TTV914\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"This \u0026 That Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46406306660538,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9124\/9082\/files\/IMG_0266.jpg?v=1787420129","url":"https:\/\/thisandthatvintage.com\/products\/1980s-mixed-metal-textured-necklace-earring-set","provider":"This \u0026 That Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
