About the Item
A stunning pair of Edwardian-era drop earrings, circa 1900, crafted in platinum and showcasing the delicate artistry of the period. Each earring features two prong-set old European cut diamonds—cherished for their vintage faceting and distinctive sparkle. The top diamonds total approximately 1.00 carat, while the bottom stones are more substantial, weighing a combined approx 4.40-carats. These antique diamonds exhibit a lovely J–K color range and a clarity of VS2 to SI1, offering both warmth and brilliance.
The earrings are designed with an articulated drop that allows the lower diamonds to move gracefully with the wearer, catching the light with every turn. The platinum gallery is finely crafted with an intricate openwork pattern, a hallmark of Edwardian design that evokes refinement and attention to detail. This level of craftsmanship speaks to the era's commitment to both elegance and engineering, blending airy form with lasting structure.
The subtle graduation of the diamonds adds visual interest and gentle movement without disrupting the harmony of the overall design. This nuanced detail contributes to the earrings’ timeless charm—each element is thoughtfully balanced, enhancing both the individuality of the stones and the symmetry of the pair. Such gradation reflects an understated sophistication that defines the best of Edwardian jewelry.
Finished with secure omega-back closures for comfort and wearability, these earrings are as practical as they are beautiful. Whether worn for a formal occasion or passed down as a treasured heirloom, they embody a rare grace that’s increasingly hard to find. Their combination of antique diamonds, fine metalwork, and historical significance makes them a truly exceptional offering for the discerning collector.
