The 1901 Frank Thomas House in Oak Park, Illinois, is one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie School designs. In it, he created “light screens” or stained glass windows that integrated the design theme throughout the house. Those light screen windows inspire these 2.25" dangle earrings.
Frank Lloyd Wright was born in Richland Center, Wisconsin in 1867, and Taliesin, Wright's home, studio and country estate, is located in the hilly Driftless Region of southwestern Wisconsin near Spring Green. Wright's “Prairie style” became the basis of 20th-century residential design in the United States, and his furniture, art, and writing was crucial to twentieth-century architectural development and has a profound influence on the decorative arts to this day.
