FAQs

Victorian drop earrings reflect the shifting aesthetic periods of Queen Victorias reign, ranging from romantic floral motifs to archaeological revival and geometric designs.

They were typically fashioned from various karats of yellow or rose gold, often utilising hollow-forming techniques alongside wirework and granulation.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the construction methods, hallmark stamps where present, wire hooks, and the characteristic patina of age on the metal.

Pair them with minimalist contemporary clothing to allow the historic craftsmanship and warm metallic tones to stand out as a focal point.

Store them individually in soft pouches away from moisture, and clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth without harsh chemical dips.
