ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

In a quite clever conversion, our masterful jewelers transformed a late-Victorian bar pin into this sleekly styled pair of dangle earrings. The jewels scintillate and shine with two bright European-cut diamonds, together weighing 1.01 carats, that suspend from graceful ear wires by way of slender, gleaming gold knife-edge columns. They are now ready for another lifetime of adornment--at your lobes. Total diamond weight, 1.01 carats. 1-inch long, they drop a bit further from the ear wires. Hand fabricated in 14K gold, circa 1900.

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.
