A beautiful pair of Victorian garnet drop earrings. The rich red gems are perfectly paired with a rose gold setting, which though unmarked, tests as 9ct gold. Each earring has two cut and shaped claw set garnets: a square gem set diagonally as the top with a peardrop suspended below. The reverse of the settings are solid and the gems are foil backed, which enhances the reflective qualities and depth of colour of the rich red garnets.

Gorgeous earrings, wonderful as a special gift.

The earrings have simple gold hook fixings for pierced ears.
