ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

Measuring just over 1 1/2 inches long, these original antique drop earrings date back to the turn-of-the-20th-century, circa 1890-1900. Hand fabricated in silver over 18K gold, each earring features a gently graduated trio of tapered octagonal-cut rubies which cast a gorgeous rich crystalline red glow from within bezel-settings, and culminates with a scintillating antique cushion cut. The rubies are topped by trios of sparkling white old mine-cut diamonds. With original, easily convertible, screw-backs. 2.00 carat total ruby weight. 1.45 carat total diamond weight. Accompanied by a gemological report from Stone Group Laboratory stating: Natural, No Indications of Thermal Enhancement, Burma origin.

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.
