When the 19th century fashionista who first owned these earrings strode into her favorite haunt -- perhaps the Cafe Royale -- how her friends must have gasped with envy! Everything about them was the latest and greatest in the 1890s: the whiplash curves framing the cabochon sets, their vivid dappled green jade color and the rosy metal finish. Because they've survived more than a century so gorgeously, you can make the same stir. Both cabochon stones -- no doubt the finest Bohemian art glass -- are pristine and it takes magnification to observe light surface wear to the rose gilt, mainly on the reverses. The earrings drop approximately 1 1/4 inches below the ear and are 3/4 of an inch wide at their bases. Provenance is a Florida estate. You don't need to be told what a rare find these are, if you collect antique earrings. Please e-mail to confirm availability, order or request more photos. Thanks for looking! |
