• Condition: Overall in very good antique condition, one of the drops has a tiny chip next to the gold cap when seen under magnification (see photos).

• Fixing: Nine-carat gold butterfly scrolls.

• Hallmarks/stamps: Marked "9CT" on the cap. Butterflies stamped "9".

• Era: Estimated Edwardian.

• Size: 4cm total drop; the glass drops measure approximately 1.2 x 1.8cm.

FAQs

The Edwardian period, spanning from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by light, airy designs, platinum settings, and delicate motifs inspired by garland-style aesthetics and eighteenth-century craftsmanship.

Jewellery from this era frequently utilised lower and higher carats of gold, platinum, seed pearls, and various semi-precious coloured gemstones such as carnelian, peridot, and amethyst.

Authentic pieces often feature period-specific hallmarks, hand-cut or early machine-cut stones, delicate wire or screw-back findings, and intricate milgrain detailing characteristic of early twentieth-century manufacturing techniques.

These versatile pieces pair well with both contemporary minimalist evening wear and tailored daytime outfits, adding a subtle touch of historical character and rich colour to any ensemble.

Store pieces individually in soft pouches away from moisture and direct sunlight. Clean them gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners which can damage softer organic or porous stones.
