A pair of fine paste drop earring, France, 1920s

About the Item

Simple classic and very elegant clear paste drop earrings, totally capturing original 1920s style. Constructed with a metal drop with settings,upon which sit the clear pastes, secured with individual claws on each stone. With their original screw fitting on the ear, the tightness/looseness can be adjusted to suit the wearer, and remains secure. Ideal if you don't have pierced ears (as many didn't, in the 1920s). Perfect for a bride, or for a wedding, evening out to the theatre, dressed up or dressed - simply.
