Late Victorian Coral & Pearl Earrings

A beautiful pair of earrings from the late 19th Century, c1890s. The earrings are made from 18ct gold with replacement 9ct gold shepherds hooks. They have a beautiful stem design in the gold, which has a beautiful bloom. A vibrant natural coral bead sits at the top and the bottom of the design and they are kept in place on the stems with little natural seed pearls. The coral is a stunning colour and the orbs are very slightly oval rather than perfectly round. The effect is stunning in the ear.
