A beautiful example of archeological revival jewelry - this stunning antique British earrings are made of solid 15k yellow gold and are a perfect piece of Etruscan revival jewelry! Archeological revival jewelry was extremely popular in the late 19th - early 20th century, when the major excavations were held in the Middle East and Egypt to reveal the royal burial cites.
The earrings come from the UK and have a lovely teardrop shape. The centerpiece carries a star ornament executed in deep-blue enamel and accented with natural seed pearl. Around the celestial centerpiece we see a typical Etruscan revival ornament which resembles a twisted rope laeyered in a beautiful geometric manner.
The earrings are hollow, hence despite of their substantial size, they dont pull the ear. The condition is perfect. The ear wires are a later addition as the original lock was located at the reverse side of the earrings (pls refer to the photos to study the reverse side).
These beautiful earrings are a very rare find. Will make an amazing gift for archeological revival jewelry collector!
