Product Details

These fabulous long antique Victorian glass Turquoise Forget me not and faux Pearl drop earrings are Circa 1900.

"Forget-me-not, O Lord!" is what a poor German knight shouted as he fell into a river. He and his lady were picking flowers by the side of the river at the time, no doubt enjoying the beautiful day around them, and yet as fate would have it, the knight's armour dragged him down to the bottom as he fell in.

Upon his cries to the Lord, he threw the blue posy of flowers to his loved one and promptly drowned. This little tale reportedly dates to around the 15th century, but no doubt had different permeations along the way, as romantic stories often do. Hence, the concept of remembrance, eternal love and faithfulness grow from this.

The earrings are set in beautifully designed Victorian Base Metal drop galleries and fitted with long shepherd hook wires.

Purchased in London and steeped in English history. The earrings make a lovely romantic piece and look stunning when worn.

Weigh 4.6 grams together.

Measure 19mm across x 46mm down.

Drop length 35mm down.

Both in Excellent condition.
