This form of earring, which concentrated attention on the ear and face, appeared in the 1930s, offered by houses such as Boucheron and Boivin. Of varied design, with strong geometry derived from such sources as snail shells, spirals, and rosettes, the motif was often oriented upward to draw attention to the curve of the ear.
