A lovely pair of Queen Anne* earrings, created in gilt and set with French jet. They have kept their original back wires with large stops. The rose-cut faceted tops are claw mounted, and there are long pendant drops suspended from a rectangular link on a tongue. This would allow for the option of using different pendants if desired. The overall measurement of the earring front and drop (not including the stop) is 1 ½” x ⅝” at the widest point. These are lighter weight than some Queen Anne earrings, and the pendants move freely.
Price: $695
*Queen Anne reigned from 1702 – 1714; the style of jewelry created after her passing was noted as ‘Queen Anne’ (ca. 1750).
