A beautiful pair of earrings from the late Victorian period. The earrings are made from solid 14kt gold and have pretty coral gemstones set in closed back rub over settings. The coral is a lovely soft colour and looks very pretty in the slightly rose gold. It is great to find a pair of coral earrings with dormeuse fittings and these would sit very comfortably and securely in the ear.
There are some marks to the gold, though these are indistinct.
Details:
Materials - 14kt Gold (tested), Coral
Age - C1890s
Size - The coral measure approx 8mm by 6mm in their settings. The earrings are around 14mm long from the top of the hook to the bottom of the setting.
Condition - Very good
Weight - 1.8g the pair
