* * SOLD * *
A pair of antique, Victorian-era dangling earrings, modeled in multi-color 14k gold, each featuring a stemmed, rose-gold flower and a pair of voluptuous green gold leaves! These figural elements are beautifully textured with fine stippling and bright engraved details that represent the veins of the leaves, and define the petals of the flowers. Below each pair of leaves, a glowing yellow gold orb hangs, pendulous. Earwires are shepherd's hooks. These medium-sized earrings have a big visual presence— they are dramatic enough for an event, but they are not out of place in casual company. These have wonderful movement and are especially wonderful in wear— they give us very-slightly-dark, woodland fairytale vibes!
