Made in 18 carat rose gold, the colour of the rose gold has such a beautiful warm tone to it that highlights the incredible design.

These earrings are truly amazing to admire from near or far and highlight the designs that were created during this wonderful era.
The earrings are further highlighted by each being set with three single cut diamonds that come together to total 0.12 carats and add an elegant sparkle to capture the eye from across the room.
With their original wide clip on fittings, these earrings are so magnificent to wear and will always be such a stand out piece of jewellery to be admired by all who see them.

Retro diamond earrings made in 1950's in 18 carat rose gold
A brief history of Retro jewellery:
Retro describes jewellery produced between the later part of the 1930's to the 1950's, and also includes World War II. The styles and designs of the Art Deco jewellery still influenced designers in this era.
The retro movement was can be considered to be started by the head of Christie's jewellery department, Francois Curiel. He named the era for customers who requested jewellery with the Retro look. His realization of this era brought great popularity and prestige to retro jewellery, resulting in the increase in value and price to these designs. Retro jewellery can be easily characterised by large chunky somewhat over the top designs in not only brooches and bracelets but also rings. The use of rose gold was also quite common even in 18ct.
Large gem set brooches with a combination of such stones such as rubies and diamonds in a floral motif where not uncommon.
