Description

Fabulous large pointed cabochon moonstones mounted in silver with gold earring fittings. The rare sugarloaf moonstones and their silver settings were originally antique Arts and Crafts (c. 1880-1910) hatpins which we have had converted to earrings with the addition of solid gold wires. The stones are a soft milky blue-grey with a beautiful shimmering adularescence.

SIZE: Approx 1.7cm total drop from the top of the ear wire, the moonstones are 1.4cm diameter and around 8mm deep.

WEIGHT: 5.9g.

MATERIALS: Nine-carat (375) gold, 925 sterling silver, moonstone.

HALLMARKS/STAMPS: The mounts are stamped STERLING SILVER.

CONDITION: In excellent antique condition. There is an inclusion at the bottom of one of the moonstones which looks like a dark line across (see photos); it's inside the gem and the surface is smooth and unblemished.

ERA: Victorian (c.1837-1901) with later gold wires.

The Arts and Crafts movement valued handcraftsmanship, traditional techniques, and the inherent beauty of natural materials over mass-produced factory items.

Jewellery from this period frequently featured sterling silver, hammered textures, and semi-precious cabochon-cut stones such as moonstone, turquoise, and amethyst.

Authentic pieces often display makers marks, handmade bezel settings, minor irregularities from manual fabrication, and patination consistent with age.

Pair these pieces with minimalist attire to let the unique lustre of the natural gemstones and historical craftsmanship take centre stage.

Store them in a dry, tarnish-resistant pouch and avoid harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners to protect the soft moonstone surface and preserve the original silver oxidisation.
