A spectacular pair of antique Georgian night and day earrings from the early 19th Century crafted in pinchbeck and gilded in 18ct yellow gold.
The long droppers are chased with a fabulous chevron pattern and lead to ornate, cannetille metalwork at the bottom which is intricately detailed with beautiful floral decoration.
The flower-shaped tops in these gold earrings are fitted with lever back hooks and are perfect worn on their own as daytime earrings. The long droppers can then be added later for a more glamorous evening event.
They’re sure to catch the eye and have remained in very good condition.
