ANTIQUE VICTORIAN ENGLISH 15K GOLD GARNET GLASS TEARDROP DROP of BLOOD EARRINGS

Description

This wonderful pair of mysterious and intriguing mid-Victorian drop earrings are set with deep, rich pear-shaped garnet-coloured glass with foiled backs, like drops of blood. They hang from solid gold chains attached to 9 carat gold screw-on fasteners for pierced or non-pierced ears. They look fantastic from a distance and seem to draw the eye closer. Dating from around 1860, they weigh 4.9 grams together, have a drop of 1.5” and are in very good, fully wearable condition with signs of wear to the gold in line with their age.
The final photo shows them with a US penny (1 cent) coin for scale, which measures 19 mm / ¾ of an inch diameter.
