These are RARE. He is known for his whimsical pieces. His work is getting harder to find and is highly sought after. I purchased this handmade pair of earrings by Thomas Mann at a Jewelry Shop in the Dupont Circle area of Washington, D.C. in 1986. They were only worn a few times and have been with me in a jewelry box since 1990 when I embarked on several moves.These earrings are original with a nice aged patina. Made of mixed metals, they are a unique addition to any jewelry collection. They measure 2-3/4 inches long and 1-1/8 inches at the widest part. The back is stamped with the TM Design logo.If you love Thomas Mann pieces, I have several more I will be listing. Check back at Barbara's Backdoor Store.Will be carefully packaged in a vintage box and shipped to you in an outer box via USPS Mail. THANKS FOR STOPPING BY NOTES: Thomas Robert Mann (born 1947) is an American jewelry artist known primarily for his metalsmithing and assemblage techniques. Combining industrial-style metals with found trinkets and baubles, Mann has dubbed his style "Techno-Romantic" and runs Studio I/O in New Orleans, Louisiana, where he now lives and works. Mann was born in Northampton, Pennsylvania and raised in Allentown, Pennsylvania. His father was a machinist for Bethlehem Steel, an influence to which Mann credits his "fondness for machines." While in high school, Mann experimented with jewelry-making and worked at a silversmith shop in Allentown. The jewelry he sold during his teen years helped fund his education at East Stroudsburg University, where he earned a degree in performing arts in 1970. In 1977, Mann began exhibiting at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and later established his home and studio in New Orleans in 1982.
