About the Item
An elegant pair of antique drop earrings from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, finely crafted in 14 karat yellow gold and bearing the hallmark in use between 1866 and 1872. These earrings are a wonderful example of 19th-century Central European jewelry, combining refined goldsmithing with the distinctive charm of Austro-Hungarian design.
The earrings are of elongated teardrop form, tapering gracefully to a rounded tip. Each drop is decorated with an inset bright green stone, cut in a rectangular step-cut and set in a polished gold frame, accented above with a delicate natural seed pearl. The drops are further enriched by subtle engraved foliate scrollwork, which adds an element of texture and ornamental detail to the gleaming gold surface.
Suspended from domed circular surmounts, each similarly set with a vivid green stone, the earrings hang with gentle movement from their original curved gold ear wires. The composition strikes a fine balance between restrained elegance and eye-catching ornament.
The green stones, typical of Austro-Hungarian jewel aesthetics of the period, were often chosen for their vibrant hue , in this case most likely paste or chrysoprase, imitating emeralds with luminous clarity. The inclusion of pearls, small yet lustrous, adds a delicate contrast in both color and texture.
Details

Today, they make a beautiful addition to a collection of antique jewelry and can still be worn with ease, their timeless teardrop form flattering and versatile.
