4.10ct Georgian French 18ct Gold Rose Cut Diamond Day & Night Earrings c.1780

Sold

This is an incredibly rare chance to add a pair of Georgian French 18ct Gold rose-cut Diamond day & night earrings to your antique jewellery collection!

This exact pair of Georgian earrings features on page 33 of 'Georgian Jewellery', written by the late Ginny Redington Dawes and Olivia Collings, published in 2007. Collectively, they boast a spread of 4.10ct, with the central Diamonds alone weighing 1.00ct and 0.75ct respectively; each hand-cut Diamond has been foiled to enhance its brilliant sparkle.

What makes these French earrings so unique is their construction. Named 'Day & Night' earrings, this pair of Georgian earrings consists of three components; a large rose-cut Diamond Dormeuse that can be worn alone, and 2 'pendant' drops. The drops can be removed separately, and even worn with a Gold chain as a pendant to give you the utmost style possibilities. 

Although over 250 years old, these Georgian earrings haven't lost their sparkle, literally and metaphorically. These earrings are an incredible investment opportunity, and will likely become a prized family heirloom that will remain in the family for generations to come!

Condition

VERY GOOD-EXCELLENT. These Georgian French 18ct Gold Rose-Cut Diamond earrings are in very good to excellent condition. The earrings, given their grand age, have lasted impeccably well, to the point where you can still see their authentic French stamps. The lever backs are in perfect working order, so you can wear them confidently. The 18ct Gold backing to the Silver settings has remained gorgeous. Each of the Diamonds is fully foiled, enhancing their sparkle! 

There are some small nibbles to the larger rose-cut Diamond of one of the earrings, near the outer edge, but this is only visible up close! The only other thing to note is some ever so slight signs of wear commensurate with age to the 18ct Gold backed Diamond settings and some patina within the domed back of the larger rose-cut Diamonds, but this is an entirely natural phenomenon.
