These silver earrings, named Manhattan and designed by Björn Weckström, are large and convey a sense of power and boldness in their design. They feature a wide, angled shape that tapers down from the ear, resembling sleek, modern skyscrapers. The earrings are secured to the ear with a post and butterfly back. Once worn, they make a dramatic statement as they catch and reflect the light. Their substantial size and shiny surface would be eye-catching, making them a standout accessory for any outfit.
Sport these striking Manhattan earrings at a gallery opening to complement the artful ambiance, or let them be the conversation starter at your next rooftop cocktail party.
