ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

Gold earrings were quite the fashion statement during the mid 1800s and Victorian jewelers were put to the task to create a variety of motifs. Inspired by the ancient Etruscan art of granulation, inventive earrings such as this pair were designed. Hand crafted in 15 karat yellow gold these earrings have wonderful movement, with the embellished tear-drops swinging freely from the center. The bloomed gold surface of the earrings showcases the fine wire work and granulation. The earrings measure 1- 1/2 inches in length.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
