French 18ct Gold & Diamond Dormeuse Earrings

536U
80 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

Sleeper or dormeuse earrings started out as single old mine, cushion cut or rose cut diamonds or coloured gemstones in a crown-style setting and were often worn to bed to keep the earlobe hole from closing. These earrings were made in France circa 1900-1910 and are part 18ct white and yellow gold with secure hinged back fittings. They have been set with old mine cut diamonds with a small old mine cut diamond above within piecrust settings. They have a total estimated weight of 1.20 carats.  A lovely pair of earrings that are wearable on an everyday basis and night time too if you fancy!
