Victorian Grace: Timelessly Elegant Diamond Drop Earrings

These vintage earrings from circa 1890, crafted in the Late Victorian Aesthetic style, evoke a sense of amazement with their surprisingly large rose cut diamonds. Set in 18k pink gold and silver, these diamonds catch the light in a way that is both subtle and stunning. The way they elegantly hang from the ears adds to their allure, creating a look of sophisticated elegance. Their design is a testament to the era's dedication to beauty and craftsmanship, making them not just a piece of jewellery, but a wearable work of art that captivates and enchants.

Style
Victorian - Victorian decorative arts refers to the style of decorative arts during the Victorian era. The Victorian era is known for its eclectic revival and interpretation of historic styles and the introduction of cross-cultural influences from the middle east and Asia in furniture, fittings, and Interior decoration. Victorian design is widely viewed as having indulged in a regrettable excess of ornament. The Arts and Crafts movement, the aesthetic movement, Anglo-Japanese style, and Art Nouveau style have their beginnings in the late Victorian era.

Style specifics
The Late or Aesthetic Victorian Period - Experts divide the reign of Queen Victoria, also called The Victorian era (1837-1901) into three periods of about twenty years each; The Romantic Victorian Period (1837 - 1860), The Grand Victorian Period (1860 - 1880), and the Late or Aesthetic Victorian Period (1880 - 1901).

We consider this to be of The Late or Aesthetic Victorian Period.

Jewelry of this period is changing back from heavy to more smaller, romantic pieces with often whimsical motifs. Jewelers using diamonds and bright gemstones in elaborated and fine feminine pieces.
