Weiss was known for producing high-quality rhinestone jewelry from the 1940s through the 1970s, often using Austrian crystals and intricate designs. These earrings reflect the mid-century bridal and eveningwear aesthetic, where large, sparkling rhinestones were popular for glamorous formal looks. The combination of pave and prong-set stones was a hallmark of Weiss designs, emphasizing brilliance and elegance. The cascading dangle style with teardrop-shaped rhinestones was a frequent choice for special occasion jewelry, making these earrings a classic example of 1950s fashion.
