About the Item
These beautiful vintage amethyst stud earrings date from the 1930's to 1940's and feature a classic floral-inspired design typical of the interwar and postwar periods.

Antique Repoussé Garnet and 18K Gold Earrings
Located in Rotterdam, NL
Elegant 18 karat gold repoussé scrolling and articulated earrings from early 19th Century. The design reminds me of the lyre harp and set with beautiful faceted garnets. Which have different cut styles - oval, round and teardrop cuts and the gold around the garnets has a mille griffe design. The earrings showcase 18 garnets bezel set in this lovely mille griffe design. These types of earrings were typical of the romantic era of the Georgians and Victorians. During the Grand Tour in 18th century, the lyre is a popular symbol in antique jewelry and refers to music and 'heavenly' love. It was seen as an attribute of Apollo, the god of music, poetry and dance of the Ancient Greeks. The earrings are for pierced ears and the ear hook goes backwards through the ear and closes on top of the earrings.

Vintage 18K Gold and Amethyst Earrings by Alexander Tillander Made 1955
Located in Stockholm, SE
These vintage earrings are crafted in 18 karat gold and feature faceted oval amethysts in a rich, medium purple hue. The gemstones are bezel-set in smooth, slightly raised oval frames that give the earrings depth. They fasten with curved ear wires and a discreet safety latch at the bottom that locks the wire in place.
On the ear, the earrings sit close to the lobe and reflect light with subtle brilliance. The contrast between the warm gold and the cool violet stone creates a refined, balanced look. Elegant and timeless, they offer a sophisticated presence without being overpowering.
