Antique Edwardian Blue Paste Flower Drop Earrings 15ct Gold With Box

Details

A fabulous pair of antique drop earrings from the early 20^th Century featuring long leafy droppers connected by flowers at the top and bottom. They’re decorated with glistening clear paste stones and larger deep blue pastes that together resemble diamonds and sapphires. 

Paste is a heavy, transparent flint glass that has been used since ancient times to simulate the beauty of gemstones. The art of cutting paste takes expert craftsmanship and the highest quality stones are often able to replicate the cut, colour and sparkle of natural gems to near perfection.

The pair are a union of 15ct white and yellow gold with milgrain edging and hook wires at the top. They look stunning swinging from the ear and are accompanied by a new earring box with a blue velvet interior and powder blue leatherette exterior from M. Kemp Jewellers in Nottingham.
