Antique Georgian Rose Cut Diamond Earrings in Silver-Topped 14k Gold, Dutch
Located in Orlando, FL
Dutch Georgian-Era Silver-Topped 14K Gold Diamond Earrings – Rose Cut Pears An exceptional pair of authentic Georgian-era diamond earrings, crafted in the traditional silver-topped 14K gold construction that defines late 18th to early 19th century diamond jewelry. These earrings embody the restrained elegance and hand-crafted refinement for which the Georgian period is so highly prized. Specifications Period: Georgian era, circa late 1700s–early 1800s Metal: Silver-topped 14K yellow gold Total Weight: 8.7 grams Dimensions: Approximately 1.50" long x 5/8" wide Diamonds: Natural rose-cut diamonds Center Stones: Pear-shaped rose cuts, approx. 6.7mm x 4.85mm, approx. 0.70ct each Total Diamond Weight: Approximately 1.65 carats total Construction: Closed-back settings with silver tops Findings: Turn of the century replacement 14k gold lever back clips ons with base metal solder used (typical of the period) Imported from Amsterdam. Likely Dutch origin. Craftsmanship & Historical Context Silver-topped gold construction was the preferred method for setting diamonds during the Georgian era, allowing the silver to enhance diamond brightness under candlelight while the gold provided structural strength. The rose-cut diamonds—faceted with a flat base and gently domed crown—reflect light in a soft, romantic glow characteristic of the period. The pear-shaped center diamonds are beautifully proportioned and hand-set, framed within delicately worked silver settings that display the subtle irregularities and artistry expected of true Georgian workmanship. Condition The earrings remain in very good antique condition. Overall wear is consistent with age and appropriate for a piece of this era. Backing were changed to clip-on likely around the turn of the century. Base metal solder appears to have been used for the newer backings. A rare and refined example of Georgian diamond jewelry...

Early 20th Century Drop Earrings

Diamond, Pearl and Antique Drop Earrings

Earrings are a timeless accessory. Women have been wearing studs and hoops in civilizations as far back as Ancient Egypt. Diamond drop earrings, pearl versions and other antique drop earrings have a long history as well.

While hoops will always be beautiful, drop earrings hold their own as dazzling accessories, and jewelry designers have explored different variations on this style of earring over time.

Although the term is often misapplied, true drop earrings are characterized by a long lean line ending in a pear-shaped stone that drops just below the earlobe. These accessories were popular in the Art Deco era, which encompassed the 1920s and ’30s and ushered in a very distinct look in jewelry design.

There were many influences on Art Deco jewelry; among them, the excavation of the tomb of King Tut in 1922. “Egyptomania” left an indelible mark on all of the major jewelry houses, from Cartier to Van Cleef & Arpels, Boucheron and Georges Fouquet. Today, the popularity of long Art Deco drop earrings can be attributed to the influence of Coco Chanel. These earrings are frequently characterized by simple shapes, clean lines and an integration of colorful stones such as blue sapphires, emeralds and rubies to accent the pieces’ diamonds. Indeed, during the 20th century, as technology for diamond cutting improved, diamond drop earrings and other diamond jewelry came into wide popularity. Formal examples of diamond drop earrings pair perfectly with a cocktail dress or fancy pantsuit, while gem-set and gold drop earrings make great daytime accessories.

While there are at least several types of earrings you could be wearing right now, drop earrings work well for anyone who favors a minimalist look. Whatever the occasion, find a wide range of antique, diamond and pearl drop earrings on 1stDibs.
