A signature design from Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co., these sculptural starfish studs embody the organic, fluid aesthetic that defined Peretti’s work in the 1970s and beyond. The softly contoured, asymmetrical arms mimic natural sea forms, giving the earrings a sense of movement and life rather than rigid symmetry.

Crafted in rich 18k yellow gold, the surfaces are smoothly polished to a high luster, catching light beautifully across the curved forms. The compact yet dimensional design sits comfortably on the ear while still offering a distinctive, recognizable silhouette tied to Tiffany’s most celebrated designer.

A timeless and collectible Peretti motif—equally suited for everyday wear or as a refined coastal-inspired accent.

Condition: Very good to excellent estate condition with light surface wear consistent with age.
