Compact, graphic and irresistibly chic, they distil one of the designer’s most recognisable creations into an exceptionally wearable jewel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated in 1985 for the ‘Pardy et Pardy’ collection, these earrings embody the independent design language Marina Bulgari established after leaving her family’s celebrated house: rounded geometry, ingenious construction and fearless contrasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach domed heart is assembled from interlocking ribbons of polished yellow gold and blackened steel, curving around an open centre. Their black sheen intensifies the warmth of the gold, creating a dramatic effect without any need for gemstones. The reverse reveals a pierced steel gallery and secure hinged clips, distributing the volume comfortably across the earlobe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn emblem of 1980s Italian and Swiss fine jewellery, the design also carries cultural cachet: Versions of Marina B’s heart clips have been worn by Jackie Kennedy Onassis and Julia Roberts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWE LOVE THESE EARRINGS because they are glamorous, witty and resolutely individual. Their smaller proportions make them easy to wear, while the signed and dated design gives them genuine collector relevance. This is a quintessential Marina B creation: technically complex, visually immediate and so incredibly chic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTYLE: A design for women by one of contemporary jewellery’s most influential women, these heart clips go with practically everything. Wear them with hair swept back and a crew neck, allow them to glamourise denim and basics, or let them flash at night. Their compact size makes them as convincing in broad daylight as at dinner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hidein-fp\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Price Analysis\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA VERY FAIR PRICE because these are signed, dated examples of a documented Marina B design with one of the designer’s most recognisable black steel-and-yellow gold constructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• DESIGN \u0026amp; PERIOD VALUE: Created in 1985, ‘Pardy et Pardy’ belongs to Marina B’s defining decade. Its interlocking heart construction, rounded geometry and high-contrast palette capture the designer’s unmistakable contribution to 1980s Italian and Swiss fine jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• MATERIAL VALUE: Weighing 27.60g as a pair, the earrings combine polished 18k yellow gold with blackened steel. Their value lies in the specialist construction required to integrate the two metals so seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• CRAFTSMANSHIP: The curved gold and steel components fit together with precision, creating sculptural volume around an open centre.
