The wonderful twist design of the gold marries perfectly with the free form of the natural branch coral, resulting in such a stylish pair of antique earrings from the Victorian era.
Made in 9 carat rose gold in the 1890's, even the colour of the gold compliments the warm orange of the coral. Whereas much of the coral on the market today is dyed, these are all completely natural and adds to the charm even more, as does the lovely design of the gold which is further engraved adding even more style to these earrings.
The bottom section measures 15.2mm across and from the bottom to the top of the hook, this distance measures 25mm making them perfect to wear for a formal or informal occasion.
With a style and design all unto itself, these earrings are just so beautiful.

At Kalmar Antiques in Sydney's historic Queen Victoria Building. For over thirty five years, Kalmar Antiques has been dealing in fine antique jewellery from the Georgian era right through to modern. Not only do we have a large range of antique engagement rings, but we can also repair your damaged or broken antique jewellery. Employing jewellers who can repair antiques with no evidence of having work done, our restoration of antique jewellery doesn't stop there. We also employ an in-house watchmaker who used to work for Tag Heuer, LVMH and Rolex, and are an authorised OMEGA watch service centre.
The Victorian era was from 1837 until 1901. Until Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Victoria was the longest ruling monarch in British history. Queen Victoria was influential in not just politics, but also fashion. After Prince Albert died in 1861, Queen Victoria went into a perpetual state of mourning. During this time until her death, she wore only black, and popularised mourning jewellery.
Yes! Often people are surprised to find that they can purchase a piece of jewellery that is over 100 years old for not a lot of money.
