Vintage Cherub Cameo Drop Earrings Pearl Diamond Bows

Product Details

A fabulous pair of Victorian revival drop earrings featuring two high relief cameos hand carved from bullmouth shell. They depict two winged cherubs, one holding a drum and the other grapes. 

Roman style Cameo’s were highly sought after in the Victorian era and saw a revival in the early 20^th Century. Cherubs were popularly depicted and represented innocence, love, and faith. 

The cameos are framed in 18ct gold and hang from a sterling silver bow decorated with fourteen twinkling brilliant cut diamonds and a central pearl.

The workmanship is truly exquisite, and they’ve remained in excellent condition.
