Design & Craftsmanship
Handcrafted in the late 1980s/early 1990s, these earrings embody the fantasy-driven glamour that made Kirks Folly a cult favorite among collectors. The design features:
Bold enamel scarabs in vibrant orange and jewel-toned green/blue, paying homage to mystical Egyptian inspirations.
Brilliant rhinestones, meticulously handset to frame and highlight each section, adding the signature Kirks Folly sparkle.
High-polish orange cabochons and marbled glass bead drops, adding depth, movement, and an exotic flair.
A gunmetal-finish backing, stamped with the Kirks Folly hallmark, ensuring authenticity and showcasing the brand’s high-quality workmanship.
Despite their dramatic presence, these are pierced earrings with secure posts, designed to distribute weight comfortably – slightly heavy but surprisingly wearable, they won’t tug uncomfortably on the ears.

Perfect for evening soirees, art events, or themed gatherings – they exude both fantasy and vintage drama.
