Vintage 9ct Gold Zircon Drop Earrings

1940 - 1960
Description

Pretty Art Deco-style earrings with super-sparkly white stones mounted in crown settings and separated by nine-carat gold knife-edge bars. The gems are believed to be zircons (not to be confused with cubic zirconia) which mostly originate from Sri Lanka and have been appreciated for centuries for their diamond-like fiery brilliance.

• Condition: Excellent vintage condition.

• Stamps/hallmarks: Lovely crisp hallmarks on each bar for nine-carat gold, Chester, 1953.

• Fixing: Nine-carat gold butterflies.

• Size: 2.2cm long. The smaller zircons measure approximately 3.5mm and the larger ones 6mm.

• Weight: 1.5g.

The antique box pictured is not included.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Drop earrings feature a gemstone or design motif that hangs below the earlobe, suspended via a hook, post, or articulated metal bar.

These items typically feature solid yellow gold alloys, such as 9ct or 18ct, set with natural zircons, diamonds, or clear paste stones mounted in metal claw settings.

Authentic pieces carry official purity hallmarks, such as 375 for 9ct gold, alongside era-appropriate construction details like hand-cut claws and fine articulation links.

Linear drop earrings provide subtle vertical accentuation, making them suitable for formal evening wear or elevated minimalist attire.

Clean gently using warm water with mild detergent and a soft-bristled brush, then dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth before storing in a padded case.
