Antique double drop pair of pietra dura earrings in rose gold

Pietra dura goes back as far as the Roman times and is the term given for the inlay technique of using cut and fitted, highly-polished colored stones to create images in solid walls and floors, furniture as well as jewellery as can be seen here in these lovely antique double drop pair of pietra dura earrings in 9 carat rose gold.

These earrings date from the 1880's and are quite unique to be found with two pieces rather than just one. Measuring 41.3mm or 47.8mm to the very top of the shepherd hooks, by 17.6mm wide at the lower piece, these earrings looks spectacular on the ear and thanks to the combination of the warm rose gold with the solid black and of course the floral design in the centre, these earrings will easily suit the day and look stunning in the evening.

Still in wonderful condition, these antique pietra dura earrings are as good as they get.
