Art Deco Silver Gilt, Peking Glass, Red & Black Enamel Long Drop Earrings

Written by Olly Gerrish

A stunning pair of silver gilt Art Deco drop earrings. They were the costume jewellery of the 1920s imitating their much more expensive superior, ‘Cartier’. They have large oval Peking glass plaques with leaves and flowers where Cartier would have used jade. Cabochon black glass tops are used instead of onyx and the black and red enamelling is not of the same high quality as Cartier. Nevertheless they are a great look on the ear and most original.
