FAQs

Victorian drop earrings from the 19th century typically feature hand-cut diamonds set in yellow gold or silver-topped gold mountings. Design characteristics often include articulated links, delicate drop pendants, and hand-engraved or starburst collet settings designed to secure hand-faceted stones.

Craftsmen during the Victorian period commonly utilised 18ct or 15ct yellow gold, silver, and hand-cut diamonds such as old mine cuts or rose cuts. Gold settings were often constructed by hand with intricate claw, buttercup, or starburst mountings.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-faceted old cut diamonds with irregular proportions, small tables, and open culets. Additionally, look for period-correct gold hallmarks, hand-wrought wire fittings, and light wear consistent with historical handcrafting methods.

Fine antique drop earrings can be paired with minimalist contemporary tailoring or modern evening wear to allow the detailed goldwork and distinct diamond facets to serve as a focal point.

Clean gently using lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemicals. Store the earrings individually in a lined jewellery box to prevent diamonds from scratching adjacent gold metalwork.
