Finding the Right chandelier-earrings for You
Antique and vintage chandelier earrings, as their name implies, are decorative wide pendants lit up with gems. The most coveted are set with diamonds, but there are stunners in gold and pearls as well as enamel.
The accessory is a well-known object of desire — Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, is an enthusiast of diamond chandelier earrings. She’s borrowed them from Queen Elizabeth II, who received the jewels from her father, King George IV, as a wedding gift when she was a princess.
Fine jewelry examples from the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras are eternally on the wish lists of fashionable romantics — the types who would toss on these jewels with a T-shirt and jeans as easily as with a floral gown. And while earrings of any kind are the best type of jewelry to give or receive, chandelier earrings are popular and rather imposing — they embody movement and elevate individual style.
Browse antique and vintage chandelier earrings on 1stDibs today. Find a variety of these accessories in our collection of fashion jewelry, too.
