Description
Surrealist revival style pair of earrings, in silvered metal in the shape of a stylized eye with an oval shaped turquoise imitating bead in the center.

Surrealist art uses motifs of easily recognizable subjects – such as animals, human anatomy, instruments, and shapes – to express the dream-like state of the work. The uncanny strangeness that classifies surrealist art is the very quality that, unsurprisingly, drew fashion designers to begin exploring the movement as early as the 1930s.
