A beautiful and highly collectible pair of Georgian cut steel earrings, dating to circa 1800 and showcasing the distinctive craftsmanship of the period.
Designed as faceted cluster discs, the earrings are formed from individually set cut steel elements, carefully arranged to create a striking, light-catching surface. This technique was highly prized during the Georgian era, offering brilliance and sparkle long before the widespread use of diamonds in everyday jewellery.
Now over 200 years old, these earrings remain both visually impactful and historically significant - a true testament to the enduring appeal of antique jewellery.
They are fitted with later 9ct gold fish hook wires (unmarked but professionally tested), allowing them to be worn comfortably while preserving the integrity of the original design.
