FAQs

The Edwardian period, spanning from 1901 to 1915, is characterised by light, delicate metalwork made possible by advances in working with platinum, often incorporating garland and bow motifs.

Jewellers during this era primarily utilized platinum and 18ct gold to construct light, strong settings, combining them with hand-cut stones such as Old European or transitional cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces typically feature milgrain borders, platinum-faced gold or full platinum mountings, and hand-cut diamonds displaying open culets and higher crowns.

The linear drops and monochrome metallic palette allow these earrings to transition effortlessly between formal evening attire and modern, structured tailoring.

Gentle cleaning using warm water, a mild soap solution, and a soft-bristled brush is recommended to remove debris without damaging delicate settings or clasps.
