Victorian Silver/14k Large Aqua & Diamond Chandelier Earrings

A striking pair of earrings from the Victorian (ca1880s) era! Crafted in sterling silver and 14k gold, these beautifully patinated earrings have an elaborate floral design encrusted with glinting Rose Cut diamonds along with pale blue Aquamarines, which have an approximate total weight of 15.00ctw+. The ornate floral design is comprised of three hinged links featuring swirling leaves and flowers with the diamonds and aquamarines mixed among the lowest link. Three pear cut aquamarines dangle from hinged links attached to the lower link as well. Yellow gold wires secure the pair to the wearer's ears, and they frame the face beautifully. This magnificent pair would look phenomenal worn at a special event, and they would be an excellent addition to a Victorian collection!

Measurements: The earrings hang 3 1/2" long including the earring wires and 1" at their widest point.

Condition: The earrings are in excellent condition. Besides normal surface wear, there is no apparent damage to the sterling silver setting.  There is a natural patina on the surface of the silver setting, which is normal for antique jewelry, and adds to its beauty and unique appearance. The gold earring wires are secure and in good working condition. The stones are intact and securely set, aside for one pear cut aquamarine with a chip at the point.
