Description
These Edwardian-inspired drop earrings capture the refined elegance of early 20th-century jewellery design, when pearls and gemstones were paired to create pieces of understated luxury.
Handcrafted Quality
Each pair is handmade in my Suffolk workshop using traditional silversmithing techniques. As a Fellow of the Gemmological Association (FGA), I personally select every gemstone for colour, clarity, and cut quality. The natural amethysts feature the rich purple tones characteristic of fine-quality stones, while the freshwater cultured pearls are chosen for their lustre and form.
Materials & Construction
- Sterling silver settings and ear wires (hallmarked)
- Natural amethyst gemstones in a pear cut
- Freshwater cultured pearls with excellent lustre
- Secure ear wire fastenings
Historical Inspiration
The Edwardian period (1901-1910) favoured delicate, feminine designs featuring pearls and pastel-colored gemstones. These earrings honour that aesthetic while being crafted for modern wear and durability.
