Description

The workmanship of these Victorian earrings is just fabulous. They are rendered in high-carat gold, at least 15 carat, which you can see in the beautiful rich colour. Supplied with their fabulously regal original fitted box, silk lined in deep indigo blue, with a crown logo and "J. Edmonds, 67 Baker Street, London" hand blocked in gold lettering.

• Condition: In very good antique condition. There is a tiny ding on the back of each earring if you look very closely at the photos. They would originally have had some kind of dangling ball hanging in each circle but sadly these are lost in the mists of time.

• Fixing: Sturdy ear wires, supplied with tiny silicone "keepers" to pop on the ends for additional security.

• Era: Victorian.

• Size: Approx 3.5cm drop from the top of the ear wire x 2cm.

• Weight: 4.5g.

Victorian jewellery spans the reign of Queen Victoria (18371901) and is typically divided into three distinct periods: Early (Romantic), Mid (Grand), and Late (Aesthetic). Designs evolved from romantic floral motifs to heavier, more revivalist pieces following the Industrial Revolution and the death of Prince Albert.

Victorian high-carat gold items frequently utilised gold ranging from 15ct to 18ct, predating the 9ct standardisation common in later decades. Goldsmiths employed techniques such as filigree, granulation, repousse, and engraving to create intricate dimensional ornamentation.

Authentic Victorian earrings often feature period-appropriate findings such as wire hooks or lever-backs, hand-applied gold work, and potential makers marks or hallmarks denoting gold purity. Examination under magnification reveals hand-tooling marks rather than modern casting seams.

Antique gold earrings pair effortlessly with contemporary minimalist attire to create a striking textural contrast. When not being worn, they are frequently displayed within decorative glass domes or catchtrays as part of a curated vanity arrangement.

Antique gold jewellery should be cleaned gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners which can damage delicate stones or historic solders. Store each piece individually in a lined box or pouch to prevent scratching.
