Belle Époque Platinum & 18ct Gold Triple Drop Earrings | 1ctw Old Mine Cut | French c.1890-1910

Classic Belle Époque French drop earrings, fully hallmarked, simply just as wearable today as they were when they left a Paris atelier over a century ago! The construction is tight and lovely; a platinum crown prong settings wraps around all three diamonds in each earring, an 18ct yellow gold body, and old mine cut diamonds in the drops measuring a substantial 5mm diameter for the bottom diamond of each. The eagle head hallmark and French platinum mark on the post backs confirm their origin. At under an inch in length and just over 2 grams each, these are the rare antique earrings that earn the title of perfect everyday pieces — refined enough for a formal occasion, light enough to forget you're wearing them.
