Long long earrings ear pendants. 18k white gold and diamonds. Made in Switzerland by Chopard. No significant age. 
 

Measurements:

Weight is 7.7 grams. A little under 2 1/2 inches (6cm) long.  Approximately 1.95ct diamonds.

Description :

Very long, thin, elegant ear pendants. Ear drops - quite literally. They start on the earlobe with a spherical surmount - round, domed, completely pave set with diamonds. Set on white gold posts. 
As though falling from the lobe, an elongated pear shape, similarly pave set with diamonds. Total sense of balance with the upper section. A knife-edge white gold bar leads to another round station, this time set with a single, round, brilliant cut diamond. Finally, a long knife-edge melts into a larger, elongated, pear-shaped drop, set like the above sections with finely pave set diamonds. 
Sections are articulated, allowing them to swing and sway as the wearer moves. Dazzling as the light catches the diamonds, compounded by every tiny movement. 

Very subtle and intelligent play of sizes - fine elegance, with a big look due to brilliant gems, design and movement. Sophisticated elegance. Fabulous quality workmanship. 


Marks and Metal:

backs marked Chopard 750 (for 18k gold); a pair of illegible/unknown marks; 84/5437/0; 2876523.
The butterflies are also hallmarked, including 750 and maker's mark lozenge. 
     

Condition:

Good with negligible wear commensurate with age.  Please see enlarged pictures and don't hesitate to ask questions which we will do our best to answer.   

THE STORY: 


Since Georgian and Victorian times, it was recognised that diamonds look best when set in white gold. 
Chopard is known for their exclusive, luxurious jewellery. Founded in 1860, Chopard included royalty such as Czar Nicholas II of Russia as their customers. Headquartered in Geneva Switzerland. No finer quality jewelry made today and this elegant pair of earrings is the best of the best that Chopard produced.  
Are these earrings emulating rain and snow? Do you think that the drop shapes, the glitter and the gleam are highly reminiscent of a winter wonderland in action? Or intended to razzle at a summer party? 
These glittering earrings can be worn to draw attentioin at the most elegant party or ball. Very classy.
