Description
Gleaming 24-karat gold-plated beads alternate with blue-and-white porcelain adapted from Ming and Qing Dynasty vessels in our National Museum of Asian Art and handcrafted in the U.S. Despite the formal elegance of both porcelain and gold, their juxtaposition here gives these simple hoop Gold Ball with Porcelain Bead Earrings an eclectic, more playful look.
This jewelry item comes packaged in a white box (pictured).
Museum Story
The National Museum of Asian Art is a global resource for understanding Asian arts, cultures, and societies and their intersection with the United States. Opened in 1923 as the country's first national art museum, it now stewards one of the world's best collections of Asian art, which date from antiquity to the present, from China, Japan, Korea, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Ancient Near East, and the Islamic world (including Central Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa). The museum also holds an important array of 19th- and early 20th-century American art of the Aesthetic Movement.
