About the Item

A pair of exquisite antique 19th-century night-and-day convertible chandelier earrings, featuring natural pearls and old-cut diamonds in silver and yellow gold. Each earring is designed with a floral-inspired surmount, centering a round button-shaped pearl encircled by a halo of Old Mine-cut diamonds. Suspended below is a delicate diamond-set cross motif, leading to an articulated drop-shaped natural pearl, elegantly framed by a detachable twin-row garland of Old Mine-cut diamonds. The removable design allows for versatility—wear them with or without the additional diamond frame for different occasions. The earrings are secured with later-added post and butterfly fittings.
