FAQs

Crafted between 1901 and 1910, Edwardian diamond drop earrings are recognised for their lightweight construction, delicate wire mountings, and articulated drop designs that highlight the sparkle of hand-cut diamonds.

Jewellers during the Edwardian era primarily utilised 18ct yellow gold, platinum fronts, and old European or old mine cut diamonds set into fine prongs or collets.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut diamonds with distinctive open culets, high crowns, hand-drawn hook wires, and delicate metalwork often combining platinum and yellow gold.

Their minimal drop silhouette allows them to transition seamlessly between formal eveningwear and contemporary casual tailoring, or be displayed elegantly on a velvet tray within a dressing area.

Clean gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush. Have a professional jeweller inspect the prongs and hook fittings periodically, and store the earrings in a lined box away from other hard gemstones.
