Antique Gold, Silver, Enamel, Ruby, and Diamond Earrings – Circa 1890

A breathtaking pair of late 19th-century drop earrings, meticulously crafted in gold and silver, adorned with blue enamel, rubies, and rose-cut diamonds. The pear-shaped rose-cut diamonds, approximately 1.0 carat each, are gracefully set within rich deep blue enamel frames, a signature design element of the era. The contrast between the luminous diamonds and vibrant enamel enhances the dramatic elegance of these exquisite earrings.

At the top, a delicate cluster motif features oval rubies, approximately 0.35 carats each, encircled by sparkling old-cut diamonds, creating a striking focal point. An intricate arrangement of additional old-cut diamonds, totaling 0.80 carats, further enhances the brilliance of the design. The expertly crafted gold and silver metalwork, combined with the subtle movement of the diamond drops, lends a timeless sophistication to this museum-worthy treasure.

With provenance linked to the Famille Princière de Rohan, these earrings are not only a masterpiece of 19th-century craftsmanship but also a significant piece of aristocratic heritage. Their regal composition and refined aesthetic make them a true collector’s piece for antique jewelry connoisseurs.
