ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

These fabulously feminine drop earrings, measuring 1 5/8-inch long and lovely (they drop even a bit further from the ear wires), date back to the mid-19th century, circa 1850-1875. Each earring displays a half-dozen pretty pastel pink precious topazes elegantly presented in fanciful foliate motif frames, lightly hand fabricated in 18K yellow gold. Rare and ravishing wearable collectables. One of the pear-shaped stones is accompanied by a gemological report from the GIA.

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.
