Vintage 18ct Gold Diamond and Pearl Dormeuse Earrings

Beautiful solid 18-carat white gold cultured pearl drops topped with sparkling white diamonds. The diamonds are bright and fiery and the pearls have a soft shining nacre, creamy white with pink and green highlights.

• Condition: The earrings are in very good vintage condition. One has a small chip in the top layer of nacre, toward the back, but it's really something you'd only see if you are looking for it under magnification and the pearl layer beneath is exactly the same colour, see photos (I've tried to photograph it to its worst advantage!), I only mention it here for complete accuracy.

• Fixing: Secure integral hinged backs.

• Hallmarks/stamps: Continental hallmarks. The earrings test as 18-carat gold.

• Era: Estimated 1930s-mid-20th century.

• Size: The pearls measure 8mm diameter and the diamonds 3mm, at a rough calculation around 0.34TCW.

• Weight: 4.9g.

Bear in mind photos are very magnified and flaws which can be seen in the pictures are often imperceptible to the naked eye in real life. I always do my very best to point out any additional flaws, but please look carefully at all the photos as they are an important part of the listing and do ask if you have any questions!
