Lilly Fitzgerald Collectors Rainbow Moonstone 22k Yellow Gold Handmade Earrings

One of a Kind Earrings hand-fabricated by master jewelry maker Lilly Fitzgerald featuring an exceptional quality, very rare pair of faceted rose-cut rainbow moonstones totaling 16.5 carats, lit dramatically with rainbow adularesence in a striated pattern that glows ethereally across the surface and back in each gem. The phenomenal pair is intricately secured by cylindrical double prongs and embellished bezel-setting, dangling beneath hand-built 22k yellow gold accenting and 18k yellow gold ear wires.

About the Maker - Lilly Fitzgerald is a master goldsmith based in Spencer, Massachusetts. Though essentially self-taught, Fitzgerald studied fine art and painting at museum schools in Montreal and Worcester, MA. “At heart I’m a frustrated painter and sculptor,” says Fitzgerald. Her studio, a renovated 18k century barn, is filled with books and objects from her travels throughout Asia, Europe and the United States, inspiring her unique designs. The master craftswoman hand-fabricates all of her jewelry in 22k gold, focusing on highlighting the finest gems and minerals that she sources from around the world. She also often incorporates vintage materials and rare artifacts resurrected from prior lives to create an extraordinary amalgam of past and present. Described as luminous and elegant, Fitzgerald’s classically beautiful work crosses over from decorative to fine art, but always exhibits exceptional structural complexity and distinction. Having received numerous awards and honors from the American Craft Exposition, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Boston Society for Arts & Crafts, among others, her work is now included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and private museum collections throughout the United States.
