Ruby Superior, Pearl, 9ct Gold stud-drops. The above fine, matched Rubies are of an excellent lively red. To source genuinely lively Ruby in a matched pair of gemstones of the above sort of size -these are 2.5mm round- one must pay top price; the above “Ruby Superior” pair is, for size, of the very best quality.
Ditto the 2.7mm round half-Pearls, genuine AGrade white and of very good lustre (not rhinestone, resin or glass); lovely how Pearl and Ruby work so well together.
This style of earring, an articulated set gemstone beneath a bar, harks back to Antiquity, to the ancient Etruscans; it became quite popular again in Victorian times. The above eardrops, designed created and crafted in Sydney, had as inspiration a late 1800s English pair, on earhooks rather than stud-posts, a little grey Pearl set at the top of the bar and a Coral cut teardrop articulated at the bottom. Nice, and so are the above nice: genuine AGrade superior gemstones, solid Sydney-crafted 9ct Gold, and a slim elegance of look.
