This magnificent pair of hanging dangle earrings dates to the Georgian era circa 1870s, fully handcrafted in a mix of 14 and 15 karat yellow gold. The main elements of this pair are the amphora bottles which sway and dazzle freely with its its Grecian-inspired, stylized handles and delicious gold tone! These extraordinary, antique ear pendants are made with elegance in mind. These three dimensional earrings boast sharp lines, but the result is a balanced design that does not exaggerate with ornate decorative motifs, which could be typical of the time. Thanks to their hollow design, these antique earrings are very light and comfortable to wear. They make for a wonderful example of Georgian jewelry, which would make a special addition into any serious collection!
They measure 2 and 1/4 inches long (including the wire at the top) by 3/4 at its widest point and the tops were converted more recently, so they are suited for pierced ears.
