Antique Victorian Paste Flower Drop Earrings Silver 18ct Gold

Product Details

A pretty pair of antique Victorian flower drop earrings, decorated with a glittering cluster of old cut paste petals, with one more crowned on top. The stones are set in silver claw settings and backed in 18ct yellow gold, along with large lever back hooks.

Paste is a heavy, transparent flint glass that has been used since ancient times to simulate the beauty of gemstones. The art of cutting paste takes expert craftsmanship and the highest quality stones are often able to replicate the cut, colour and sparkle of natural gems to near perfection.

These are a fabulous pair of antique Victorian earrings, dating to the late 19th Century and are both in excellent condition.
