Are these earrings original nineteen-thirties pieces?

The selection includes original pieces from nineteen-thirty alongside Edwardian examples and later revivals from nineteen-fifty and nineteen-sixty. Material choices and construction techniques help distinguish the interwar originals from subsequent revivals.

How do I care for silver and marcasite earrings?

Silver settings benefit from gentle polishing with a soft cloth while avoiding liquid dips that dislodge glued marcasite stones. Keeping them dry prevents tarnishing and protects the integrity of the individual stone settings.

What is the difference between stud and drop styles?

Studs sit directly on the earlobe, usually featuring a central cluster configuration that highlights specific gemstones. Drop and dangling variants extend below the lobe, utilising linear weight to create movement and showcase geometric silhouettes.

Can I wear these pieces every day?

Platinum and white gold diamond clusters offer robust durability suitable for regular wear when checked by a jeweller. Silver and plated modernist earrings require more careful handling to preserve delicate drops and surface finishes.
