This pair of earrings has the appealing shape that was extremely popular in the years before the turn of the last century. Earrings hanging just below the earlobe were very popular at the time, when people appreciated small, inconspicuous earrings that were nevertheless intended to be precious. Although the shape of our earrings was modern, they were deliberately crafted in a traditional way: The historic rose cut of the diamonds set here and their silver settings are more in keeping with the fashion of the early 19th century. This was not unusual in those years: many pieces of jewellery were made more or less historically accurate in the style of past generations. The background to this was that the aspiring bourgeoisie had only recently come into money - old-looking jewellery gave the impression that they were heirlooms and that their own family had already been influential and wealthy for generations. As a result, not only was historical rococo or classicist jewellery collected, but new pieces were also made in these styles. The earrings feature a total of 20 rose cut diamonds. The gemstones are set in silver on a solid gold base. The earwires with additional diamonds were added more recently. The earrings came to us from London.
