A pair of dramatic silver topped, yellow gold and rose-cut diamond earrings. The marquise shaped top centering a gold star suspending an elaborated chandelier pendant with scrolls, festoons, tassels and flowers. The combination of these elements mixed with balance give great lightness.

They were retailed by Harvey and Gore, London. 8.2 cm in original fitted box.
