A wonderful pair of Betty Cook Sterling Silver Earrings. The pieces feature the Atomic Rising Phenix Bird in red enamel. The set is branded Cooke Betty. She has been designing jewelry since she graduated from the Maryland Institute in 1946. Back then she and her husband, Bill Steinmetz, renovated a house on Tyson Street in Baltimore, Maryland and built a studio for the selling of her designs. Her first important recognition came when the Walker Art Center included some of her pieces in their "Good Design" show in the mid 40's. Height: 0.5 in.
