I remember in the 1960s when my mom used to try to buy me plaid skirts and jackets I would get so mad. Plaid was a big fashion trend in the 50s and 60s, but I hated it, and now it's come back in style again.

Very few US jewelry designers made any plaid jewelry and what I do remember are plaid fabric button earrings and bracelets. These plaid style earrings are a rather rare find. They date from the late 1960s or early 1970s and are signed Boucher.

These long rectangular dangles are polished gold metal with black, white, and light pale-yellow enamel inlay in geometric or a plaid pattern. The earrings are clips with large, polished gold ball posts.

The clips are slender lever styles that are comfortable to wear and the earrings are not heavy. The rectangles are 1 7/8" long x 1/2" wide. Overall, the earrings are 2 1/2" long.

Both earrings are in excellent clean condition and in nicely card for vintage condition. Under serious close inspection, you may see a couple of tiny pin pricks in the enamel, but its the way they were made.

Both earrings are signed Boucher with the design number 0835. These earrings can easily be converted to pierced earrings if you desire.

Comes gift wrapped and shipped in a new presentation jewelry box.
