Vintage 18kt Ruby Snake Earrings
A pretty pair of earrings from the late 20th Century. The earrings are a pair of stylised snakes made from 18ct gold. The gold has a wonderful textured matte appearance and at the centre of each snake is a vibrant ruby. The rubies are natural, though they are likely to have had some heat treatment. The snakes also have little ruby eyes. The gold is marked with Au750 and the earrings are also marked with 0.28ct on the back; likely the total ruby carat weight content across the pair.
The earrings came without backs and will come with a replacement pair of 9ct gold butterfly backs.
