Antique Regency Chandelier Earrings, ca 1810
Our Notes
It is so easy to fall in love with these earrings! They are an elongated Regency version of an early girandole form. The white paste stones are bright and beautiful in their closed silver settings with the special addition of a gold wash on the backs, an indicator that these were a fine example of paste jewelry. The linear and free flowing design would have been perfectly suited to new Empire fashion that favored flowing Grecian gowns, and hair styles.
The gold wires allow for a great dangle, and their openwork design is light on the ear.
England, ca 1810

- Remove jewelry when applying lotions, soaps and perfume
- Remove jewelry before immersing hands in cleaning solvents or liquids
