A beautiful pair of antique Edwardian old-cut diamond articulated drop earrings, dating to the early 20th century and finely crafted in 18ct yellow gold with platinum-fronted settings, retaining their original 9ct gold screw-back fittings. Elegant and beautifully proportioned, they perfectly capture the refined craftsmanship and delicate styling of the Edwardian era.

Each earring features an articulated openwork drop with fine millegrain detailing, centred by a sparkling old-cut diamond measuring approximately 3mm, set within a millegrain bezel. A further old-cut diamond adorns each original screw fitting, while additional old-cut diamond accents complete the graceful design. The articulated construction allows the drops to move freely, catching the light beautifully and enhancing the lively sparkle of the antique-cut diamonds.

The combination of platinum-fronted settings over a yellow gold framework is characteristic of fine Edwardian jewellery, while the intricate pierced gallery work showcases the exceptional attention to detail of the period. Original screw-back earrings are becoming increasingly difficult to find and remain highly sought after by collectors and those who do not have pierced ears.

One of the screw fittings has a small dent to the reverse, as shown in the photographs. It is barely noticeable when worn and does not affect the function or security of the fitting.
