1960's Cold Enamel Mountain Ash or Rowan Ear-clips by Exquisite on Original Card
Collectors of Exquisite brand jewels know that these are rare to find and wonderful clip on earrings! They were designed by W.A.P. Watson of Solihull, Birmingham in the 1960's and would have complimented one of their best-selling lines - Tree Brooches. Fierce we have the earrings in the design design of Mountain Ash with green and yellow cold enamel leaves and red berries. You do come across a number of the cold enamel pins but the earrings are just harder to get. The Company also produced a delightful necklace made up of lots of little leaves and all of these wonders were marketed under their trade name - "Exquisite!"
Each of the ear-clips has been hand-painted in cold enamel with a gold-tone finish. They are presented on their original plastic coated card with the Exquisite trade mark and the words 'Mountain Ash’ They measure just 2.5cms by nearly 2cms and are in great vintage order. They mirror one another when worn and you can tell that each piece of jewelry has been hand finished because there are very subtle differences between the two. They close with a secure ear clip and would sit neatly curving up the earlobe in that great late 1950's early 1960's fashion.
