Edwardian Peridot Drop Earrings

A pretty pair of earrings from the Edwardian period, c1910s. The earrings are made from silver and have 9ct gold shepherd hook wires. The silver settings have been expertly made for each individual gemstone and have beautiful green peridots set within. The colour of the peridots is beautifully vibrant and the chain design creates plenty of movement when they are worn. It is lovely to have two different shapes of gemstone on the earrings and it creates a real point of interest.
