FAQs

Dormeuse earrings, translating from the French word for sleeping, are historical earrings designed with secure, comfortable backings specifically intended to be worn comfortably while sleeping.

Rolled gold, also known as gold filled, involves mechanically bonding a layer of solid gold to a base metal core, providing the appearance and durability of solid gold at a different price point.

Authentic Victorian pieces often feature period-specific findings such as lever-back mechanisms, hand-carved or stamped floral motifs, and characteristic patination on the base metals.

Pairing antique earrings with minimalist modern attire creates a striking contrast that highlights the intricate craftsmanship and historical details of the piece.

Clean rolled gold gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips, and store each piece individually in a lined jewellery box to prevent surface scratching.
