Located in Lisbon, PT
Museum Quality antique late 18th / early 19th century chrysolite chrysoberyl pendant drop earrings in silver and rose gold, probably Portugal, circa 1800.

These jewels are secured to the top with a lever-back fitting, consistent with the period.

Exceptional Georgian Paste Earrings, ex. Lillian Gish
Located in New York, NY
Amazing Georgian paste earrings in the most extraordinary shade of lime green from the early 19th Century. Set in a scalloped 14k gold setting around each stone.
Georgian earrings of this quality, scale and color are so incredibly rare. The faceting is exquisite.

In addition, these come from the collection of actress Lillian Gish...
