Disney Van Dell Mickey Mouse Solid 14K Yellow Gold Stud Earrings Original Box
These Disney Van Dell Mickey Mouse stud earrings are crafted in solid 14K yellow gold and come complete with their original Mickey & Co. presentation box and Van Dell paperwork. Each earring is a fully dimensional sculpted Mickey face with his signature round ears, modeled with real depth rather than stamped flat, and finished in a soft satin texture with bright diamond-cut accents on the eyes, brows, and smile that flash as they catch the light.
Van Dell, founded in Providence, Rhode Island in 1938, was one of the licensed makers behind Disney's Mickey & Co. fine jewelry line, and the quality here shows why those pieces are so collectible today. While much of Van Dell's Disney output was gold-filled, this pair is solid 14K throughout, which makes them a genuinely scarce find. The character detail is crisp, the proportions are instantly recognizable, and the backs are stamped 14K and VD.
At approximately 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch, they are a comfortable everyday stud size that reads as classic gold jewelry from a distance and reveals Mickey up close. A perfect piece for a serious Disney collector, a park-day staple, or anyone who grew up with the mouse. The original boxed packaging makes them gift-ready as found.

Fun facts:
- Van Dell began making jewelry in Providence, Rhode Island in 1938 — the heart of America's historic jewelry manufacturing district — exactly ten years after Mickey Mouse made his screen debut in Steamboat Willie.
- Disney's Mickey & Co. line of licensed fine jewelry has become increasingly collectible, and solid 14K gold examples are far scarcer than their gold-filled counterparts.
