Wendy Gell Mickey and Minnie Earrings (Late 80s, early 90s)


Back in the late 1980s (or early 90s, sorry, I can't remember exactly) a jewelry artist named Wendy Gell did custom jewelry for the Walt Disney Company.  I fell in love with her pieces since they were so unique.  She is still creating, so if this piques your interest, you can check her out here.

This is a pair of clip on earrings showing Mickey on one ear and Minnie on the other.  Each is silhouetted against a star that is embellished with rhinestones.  These earrings are quite striking, the gold is bright and shiny and the jewels are all intact.  They measure two inches wide and one and one half inches tall.

Truthfully, if you like Disney jewelry, these are pretty rare as they were only made for a short period of time.  Clearly Marked Wendy Gell and Disney Company on the back.

The original cost was $40, I'm asking $25 plus postage and insurance.
