Craftsmanship
Historical Context
Silver-topped gold construction was the preferred method for setting diamonds during the Georgian era, allowing the silver to enhance diamond brightness under candlelight while the gold provided structural strength. The rose-cut diamonds—faceted with a flat base and gently domed crown—reflect light in a soft, romantic glow characteristic of the period.
The pear-shaped center diamonds are beautifully proportioned and hand-set, framed within delicately worked silver settings that display the subtle irregularities and artistry expected of true Georgian workmanship.
Condition
The earrings remain in very good antique condition. Overall wear is consistent with age and appropriate for a piece of this era. Backing were changed to clip-on likely around the turn of the century. Base metal solder appears to have been used for the newer backings.
A rare and refined example of Georgian diamond jewelry—ideal for collectors seeking genuine early diamonds, period craftsmanship, and timeless elegance rarely found in surviving pairs today.
