Description
An exquisite pair of antique Etruscan revival drop earrings from the late Victorian era (Circa 1880) fashioned in shining 18ct gold with two large, bamboo shaped hoops with grooved detailing.
Etruscan revival pieces were crafted in the mid 1800s when ancient Etruscan jewellery was unearthed in tombs outside of Rome beginning a fascination with the style and giving birth to these beautiful pieces which were crafted in the same elaborate fashion.
The pair are very extravagant and display superb workmanship throughout. They look fabulous dangling from each ear and have remained in excellent condition.
