EXQUISITE** LARGE VICTORIAN 12K ROLLED ROSE GOLD & AMETHYST DANGLE EARRINGS NR I am so pleased to offer this FANTASTIC and VERY RARE pair of Antique Victorian Rolled Yellow Gold & Rose Gold Amethyst dangle earrings...they are HUGE and have a gorgeous figural bow design that the stones are suspended from .. They have a 1 7/16" DROP ... and the LARGE faceted stones are approx 10 CARATS EACH just so beautiful !!! It is very rare to come across Amethyst Dangle earrings that have such large faceted stones.. so dont miss these ! .. The stones are suspended from beautiful figural bows , and the stones just sparkle .. a very eyecatching and ELEGANT set. I Amethyst is the birthstone associated with February. It is also associated with the astrological signs of Pisces , Aries , Aquarius and Sagittarius. A PERFECT romantic antique gift for a loved one .. The start price is not indicative of their value , as I start all my earrings at this price regardless of value.. HISTORY They are Circa 1900 by design and styling, and are the most popular french wires in a soft antique gold. The earwires are 12 karat rolled gold and are a soft antique yellow gold color, as are the claw settings, and the figural bows are ROSE GOLD COLOR.. .. these are contrasting embellishments make for a fabulous eyecatching look ! . Antique rolled gold earrings such as this are considered to be equivalent to todays low karat gold and wear the same. The drops are more than likely rose gold shell front and back.. which was very common during these early times .. but I beleive the figural bows are solid 12k gold...and is indicative of their quality at time of manufacture. DESCRIPTION & SIZING Each earring drop measures 1 7/16" in length and just under 1" in width and the rich purple Amethyst stone dangle measures 3/4" and the individual stones measure 5/8" in length by just under 1/2" across. a FANTASTIC size ! The rose gold bows measure just under 1/2" across. The large dangles move independantly of the top bale so they dangle and swing with every move of the head.. !!! The stones are in lovely condition and are claw set .... I was advised they are real Amethyst but may also be paste.. .and they are beautifully faceted.. .. The stones are faceted with an OVAL SHAPE ...such an Elegant look.. with true Olde Worlde charm and grace.. Each bow is ROSE GOLD COLOR and has yellow gold embellishments consisting of the frenchwires and claw setting. They are for pierced ears and have french wires.. . .and weigh approx 8 grams. They wont weigh heavily on the ears..even though a susbstantial size ! Dont miss this lovely old pair...they can be worn with any outfit 24/7 ... The photos look very brassy but they are so lovely and shiny and the stones just set this off beautifully for a truly elegant look ...Please check my feedback so you may feel confident bidding with me. The only fault I can see is that one earring bow at the top, is slightly different color from the other,, which is not really noticeable when being worn. One french wire is a little out of round but can be put back into shape if required but is not necessary, Considering their vast age ..they really are in wonderful condition !
