Antique Art Deco Earrings Platinum and 18K Gold And Diamond w Appraisal (5731)

Measurements: approximately 3.5 cm (a little under 1 1/2 inches) long. 1.33ct diamonds. Weigh 8.7 grams.

Earrings made of platinum in a lacy openwork style that reflected the fashion of the day - very light and airy. A central flower form of diamonds set in filigrain platinum with an outer border of scalloped petals. The flowers are suspended from a fine tapering line of diamonds. The backs are probably replaced posts in 18k yellow gold. Workmanship is beautiful and the earrings are suitable to wear to the finest occasions.

Marks: none - if there were marks on the clasps, these were lost when the posts were attached. Platinum and gold were acid tested.

Condition: good with negligible wear commensurate with age. Please see enlarged pictures for details.
