A beautifully romantic pair of original Art Deco earrings, crafted in sterling silver and set with hand-carved shell cameos. Each exquisite cameo depicts an elegant classical female profile, surrounded by an ornate silver frame accented with sparkling marcasite. The subtle differences between the two carvings, one facing left and the other facing right, reveal their handmade character, making this pair particularly charming and unique. Originally fitted with screw-back fastenings, the earrings have been sympathetically converted with modern sterling silver hooks for comfortable wear in pierced ears. Delicate, feminine and wonderfully wearable, these antique earrings bring authentic 1920s glamour to both everyday and evening dressing.
Sourced in France and curated by Vivienne Birt for Chateau Love, these earrings embody the timeless sophistication and meticulous artistry that defines our carefully selected chateau-worthy collection of luxurious antique and vintage jewelry.
