Antique Georgian Button Earrings, ca 1810
Our Notes
Imagine a set of these buttons sewn onto a beautiful Georgian gown or waistcoat! Jeweled buttons came in all different shapes and sizes, and these are large, sparkling, and utterly dazzling. When fashion trends shifted away from grand style to a more simple Classical style, jeweled buttons fell out of favor. Cleverly, some were made into earrings and continue to be repurposed today.The closed back settings hold foiled paste stones that have retained their brilliance over the years. A great addition to one’s jewelry box!
England, ca 1860

- Remove jewelry when applying lotions, soaps and perfume
- Remove jewelry before immersing hands in cleaning solvents or liquids
- Please note that oxidation may eventually wear off of rings, then return naturally
