Victorian 18ct Gold Etruscan Revival Fringe Drop Earrings

118R
747 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A striking pair of 18ct gold drop earrings that were made circa 1860-1880. They articulate beautifully when worn and have seven tassel drops. In the 1860s there was a movement called the Etruscan Revival as many finds from the Etruscan period were being unearthed in Italy. Jewellers such as Castellani embraced the challenge of recreating the art and pieces were painstakingly made with hand applied gold wire work. These earrings are an excellent example of the craftsmanship with fine applied gold detail throughout
