French Early 19th Century 18ct Gold Poissarde Earrings

598L
Written by Olly Gerrish

A rare pair of 18ct gold earrings that were made in Normandy, France. In the early 19th century this style of earring was fashionable.  The term Poissarde (French for fishwife) means a type of earring that was worn between 1790-1830. They are so named because this style of earring has an S shaped fish hook style crossover and threads through the ear from back to front. These earrings are composed of filigree work and pressed gold motifs and are light on the ear.

They have hinge back fittings that are a little difficult to get used to but once you get the knack there will not be a problem!
