These Victorian earrings are exquisite in person. The earrings are reminiscent to an Etruscan style with bead work and granulation. The black enamel work creates depth in the design. Black enamel work was a popular accent on antique Victorian earrings during the time period bringing in design elements from the mourning jewelry made popular by Queen Victoria. The hand woven tassels on these bold earrings are in excellent antique condition and they move freely with you.
