A symbol of Van Cleef & Arpels’ elegance and creativity, the “Philippine” model perfectly embodies the playful yet refined spirit of the Maison. Created in the late 1960s and becoming iconic throughout the 1970s and 1980s, these earrings stand out for their ingenious concept: a transformable system allowing the wearer to change the hardstone hoop according to mood, occasion, or outfit. This complete set includes several interchangeable hoops - in onyx, carnelian, lapis lazuli, turquoise, and mother-of-pearl - which fit neatly around a delicate yellow gold and diamond-set stud. This clever mechanism showcases the technical mastery of the Maison and its ongoing pursuit of innovation in the art of transformable jewelry. A true icon of Van Cleef & Arpels’ style, the Philippine line has captivated collectors for over half a century with its timeless elegance, femininity, and touch of precious whimsy.
