Vintage Michaela Frey Wien Egyptian Abstract Enamel Hoop Earrings Austria

These exquisite vintage Michaela Frey Wien enamel half-hoop pierced earrings represent the height of Vienna's late-20th-century decorative enamel art. Handcrafted in Austria during the late 1970s to mid-1980s, they showcase Michaela Frey's signature Egyptian-inspired geometric style—an elegant interpretation of Art Deco and ancient motifs that later evolved into Frey Wille's famous "Egyptian Revival" line. The earrings are 24 kt gold-plated over a brass alloy base, a hallmark of Michaela Frey's early production, prized for its warmth and durability. Inside, each hoop is stamped "MICHAELA FREY WIEN", confirming authenticity and dating the pair to the period before the brand's re-launch as Frey Wille in 1992. The hinged lever-back and post design reflects the solid Austrian construction typical of this era.
