Antique Victorian small earrings ear studs. 18k gold silver diamonds rubies and emeralds. Made in France 19th century.

Measurements: combined weight is 2.7 grams. Approximately 13/16th inch (just under 20mm) length of wingspan.

Description : Very small earrings. Made in the form of flying insects, like bees or dragonflies. Wings outstretched. Eyes and abdomen are cabochon rubies. Thorax (central part of body) are emeralds and wings are pave set with diamonds. Like most Victorian jewelry, the diamonds are set in a layer of silver over gold. The rest of the body and backs are 18k gold.

A lot of Victorian and earlier jewelry was converted from one form to another as fashion and taste dictated. These little insects were originally brooches that were converted to earrings.

Marks: There are no hallmarks. French jewelry has to be signed if it weighs more than 3grams. These are lighter. If there were marks, they may have been on the pins, which are now lost.

Condition: Good with minor wear commensurate with age and use. Please see enlarged pictures and don\'t hesitate to ask questions which we will do our best to answer.
