Victorian 18k Fancy Chandelier Earrings
England
1840
English earrings from Queen Victoria's earliest year reigning her nation, celebrate the age with golden spirals and granulated orbs of gold. The earrings, practically weightless, appear to be golden lace. Their form, an elongated bell, is narrow at top and wider at bottom, culminating in a scalloped edge that suspends multiple golden dangling beads. As noted in the second image, the reverse of the earring is the same as the front with a shepherds hook ear wire. The gold work, textured and unique, purposely makes the earrings light on the ear and easy to wear. These chandelier earrings are festive and feel like a party is their due. Length 2 3/4 in. Width at widest point 3/4 in. c,1840. English, Condition is very fine.
