Met Sputnik Drop Earrings by Lobmeyr (2” Diameter)
Exclusive to the Met Opera Shop, our sparkling drop earrings made of Swarovski crystals were inspired by the Met’s Sputnik chandeliers conceived of by Tad Lbeski of Harrison & Abramovitz specifically for the lobby and auditorium of the Metropolitan Opera House then developed further and fabricated by Hans Harald Rath of J. & L. Lobmeyr, Vienna, Austria.
They are hand-crafted from brass with a nickel-free alloy and have post backs. 2” wide x 2” high.
These dazzling, one-of-a kind earrings evoke the look of a Sputnik chandelier suspended in mid-air.
An exceptional gift for lovers of the Met.

History
Sputniks
The Metropolitan Opera’s starburst chandeliers have been a beloved fixture of the opera house at Lincoln Center since it opened in 1966. Dubbed “sputniks” after the Russian spacecraft, they reflect light brilliantly through clusters of Swarovski crystals.
