About the Item
Elegant platinum Belle Époque drop earrings featuring old-cut diamonds and natural saltwater pearls, dating from the early 20th century. The design displays the refined symmetry and lightness typical of the Belle Époque era, with delicate diamond-set arches leading to articulated drops that end in lustrous pearls. The linear structure evokes the sophistication of early French high jewellery, combining platinum’s strength with graceful movement and subtle brilliance. Each earring suspends three natural pearls, accented by a total of twenty-five old-cut diamonds, all hand-set in fine millegrain detail.
The Belle Époque period (c.1890–1915) represented the height of European jewellery artistry, with platinum emerging as the preferred metal for its durability and ability to hold delicate pavé work. Designs from this era often reflected romance, elegance, and opulence — qualities clearly embodied in this pair.
