Themed collection - Earrings - vintage

I am selling part of my wife's vintage earring collection, almost all unused. Lot of 60 pairs from the '80s/'90s, warehouse find, Pop, Memphis and Street style. Splendid and lively vintage stock, consisting of 30 pairs of original vintage earrings dating from the late '80s to early '90s. An extraordinary collection that fully represents the aesthetics of that era: from geometric and Space Age design to the explosion of neon colors, up to the influence of street rave culture (with the Smiley face icons) and Memphis style. Many pieces. They are still stored on their original display cards from the era. Materials: molded plastic, resin, metal details and rhinestones. Key pieces: Large hoops (see photo with a ruler), neon acidic-green Smiley face earrings, multicolor hoops, gold/black button earrings with couture design and various polka-dot styles. Closures: mixed clip-on and post backs. Condition (To be read carefully): The lot has been cataloged as "very good condition" as these are New Old Stock items, never worn or worn only very lightly, and not sold at retail. The plastic on the front is glossy, colors are vivid, and the structures are intact. However, being original items stored for over 35-40 years, the following inevitable signs of time are present: Oxidation: on the back of some pieces, metallic components, clips, posts or earring backs show partial oxidation due to age and humidity of storage over the decades. Display cards: some original cardboard supports are yellowed, or show creases and small tears due to the years. Please carefully examine the photo gallery, including the ruler photos for measurements and the back details, before making an offer.
